Question
**Title: Understanding Independent and Dependent Events in Probability**

**Introduction:**
When two fair dice are rolled, three events can be defined: 
- Event B: The sum of the dice is odd.
- Event A: The sum of the dice is 7 or more.
- Event C: At least one die shows a 2.

For these events, we examine which pairs are independent and which are dependent.

**Independent Events:**
Events E and F are independent if:
- **Option C:** \( P(E|F) = P(E) \) and \( P(F|E) = P(F) \).

**Questions to Determine Independence:**
- Which pairs of events are independent? Select all that apply:
  - **A.** Events A and C
  - **B.** Events B and C
  - **C.** Events B and A
  - **D.** No pairs are independent

**Dependent Events:**
- Which pairs of events are dependent? Select all that apply:
  - **A.** Events B and C
  - **B.** Events A and C
  - **C.** Events B and A
  - **D.** No pairs are dependent

Understanding and identifying independent and dependent events help in analyzing probabilities effectively, providing insight into real-world scenarios where multiple conditions might influence one another.
