Probability - INDEPENDENT and DEPENDENT Events Lesson 7

Good Day to you all, 
I know you are not able to watch the videos at school, but I hoping this glitch gets fixed before Monday.  So for now, please watch at home as often as you need to.  So, we are on the last lesson for this chapter and this means we will be taking a chapter test - possibly by Thursday!  You have been given your PRACTICE TEST FORM 3A, so please complete these the best you can.  Use your notes, graphic organizers and books as resources if need be.  Psss.... THE SECRET WORDS THAT YOU  NEED TO WRITE IN YOUR GRAPHIC ORGANIZER IN LESSON 7 is "SAMPLE SPACE". 
Onward to lesson 7- the one and only 
LAST lesson for this chapter!  Lesson 7 is Independent and Dependent EVENTS.  We have learned about simple events and compound events, now we are moving onto INDEPENDENT and DEPENDENT EVENTS.  These two words are your vocabulary terms for this lesson.  If you think about the words, what do these mean to you????? Are you independent of your parents or are you still dependents of your parents?  Yes, you are still dependent of your parents and rely on them for many things.  But when you are an adult, you will be independent of your parents and you will be making your own decisions.  Or you can think of our country was dependent of England until we fought a was to become independent of England. Now our country does not need to ask England for anything as we are an independent country.  In math, these words do the same thing -  an independent event does not need support where a dependent event does need to be supported.  Example: spinning a spinner and tossing a coin- the outcome of the spin does not effect the outcome of the toss, so these would be independent events.  It's a little more confusing when you have dependent events.  Example: when you have a bag of red and white marbles.  If you pick up 1 marble and don't put it back in the bag, and pick another marble, the  outcome of the second event is dependent of the first event.  Gad! Lots of words! So , give this a little time to sink in. SECOND SECRET: WHAT DID I DO WRONG ON THE EX 1 part 1 video - hint: it was written!  Write this down in your graphic organizer also!!!

These boxer pups are Amalia's precious babies. The mamma dog is on the bottom and her baby is tackling her.  How cute can it get???

Homework: Read the blog, watch the videos and take notes in your graphic organizers and write down the vocabulary terms. 
INDEPENDENT and DEPENDENT VOCABULARY
