9. In a class, 60% of the students are female, 50% of all students in the class have long hair, 45% of the students are female and have long hair. Of the female students. 75% have long hair. Let F be the event that the student is female. Let L be the event that the student has long hair. One student is picked randomly. Are the events of being female and having long hair independent?

w to Determine If 2 Events Are Independent:
Substitute in what you know in to P(An B) = P(A) • P(B) and check to see if left
side equals right side.
o If it's equal, then it's independent.
o If it's not equal, then it's not independent (or dependent).
Let event M = taking a math class. Let event S = taking a science class. Then.
M and S = taking a math class and a science class. Suppose P(M) = 0.6. P(S) = 0.5.
and P(M and S) = 0.3. Are M and S independent?
