2. Find probabilities of independent and dependent events.
Contextualization
LOCALIZATION
Use of available resources.
INDEGENIZATION
Materials available in the classroom (chalk board and chalk) and Tarpapel
MAKING CONNECTION/S
Learners will use their learning on probability when budgeting and making value for money judgments.
All probabilities can be expressed as ratios.

Review of the past lesson: Chalkboard and chalk
A. Mutually Exclusive Event
P (A or B) = P (A) + P (B)
B. Not Mutually Exclusive Event
P (A or B) = P (A) + P (B) – P (A and B)
ENGAGE
Group (Oral) Reading: PPT presentation
Group 1: One morning, Ivan is cheerful because he is going to have
savings on the bank for the first time. He is ready to go to the bank when
suddenly Jaspher meet him. And...
Group 2: Ivan, where are you going?
Group 1: I am going to the bank to open an account to save my money.
Group 2: Oh! Okay...
Group 1: And so, Ivan went to the bank.
Group 2: Every end of the week, he withdrew half of his capital but
returned the exact amount he withdrew for the next day and continue
saves his money.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Group 3: Meanwhile, Jaspher is also doing what Ivan did but he has his
own technique in saving his money.
Group 4: (Jaspher) I will have to deposit at least every day but I am going
to withdraw half of my capital every end of the week.
Group 3: Jaspher deposits money but never return the exact amount he
withdrew every end of the week.
Group 4: Who do you think saves more of his money?
EXPLORE
Consider the following situations. Tarpapel
Situation 1: Consider a box that contains 14 red ball, 12 blue balls, and 9
yellow balls. A ball is drawn at random and the color is noted and then put
back inside the box. Then, another ball is drawn at random. Find the
probability that the first ball is red and the second ball is yellow.
Situation 2: Consider a box that contains 14 red ball, 12 blue balls, and 9
yellow balls. Suppose that two balls are drawn one after the other without
putting back the first ball. Find the probability that the first ball is red and
the second ball is yellow.
EXPLAIN
Independent Events PPT presentation
- Two events are independent if one of the events gives us no Tarpapel
information about whether or not the other event will occur; that Chalkboard and chalk
is, the events have no influence on each other.
P(A and B) = P(A) · P(B)
Example:
Situation 1: Consider a box that contains 14 red balls, 12 blue balls, and 9
yellow balls. A ball is drawn at random and the color is noted and then put
back inside the box. Then, another ball is drawn at random. Find the
probability that the first ball is red and the second ball is yellow.
Given: 14 red balls Solution:
12 blue balls P(A and B) = P(A) · P(B)
9 yellow balls P(red and yellow) = P(red) · P(yellow)
35 balls P(red and yellow) = ·

P(red and yellow) = or

Dependent Events
- When outcome of one event affects the outcome of another event;
they are dependent events.
P(A and B) = P(A) · P(B following A)
Example:
Situation 2: Consider a box that contains 14 red ball, 12 blue balls, and 9
yellow balls. Suppose that two balls are drawn one after the other without
putting back the first ball. Find the probability that the first ball is red and
the second ball is yellow.
Given: 14 red balls
12 blue balls
9 yellow balls
35 balls
Solution:
P(A and B) = P(A) · P(B following A)
P(red and yellow) = P(red) · P(yellow following red)
P(red and yellow) = ·
P(red and yellow) = or

Another example:
What is the probability of drawing 2 blue balls in succession without
replacement?
Solution:
P(blue and blue) = ·
P(blue and blue) =

Group Activity: Activity Cards/Tarpapel
Find the probability of the given problem.
Group 1:
A bag contains 6 black marbles, 9 blue marbles, 4 yellow marbles, and 2
green marbles. A marble is randomly selected, replaced, and a second
marble is randomly selected. Find the probability of selecting a black
marble, then a yellow marble.

Group 2:
A box of can goods contains 10 beef loafs, 8 corned beefs, and 6 sardines.
Rosey randomly chooses a can good, cooks and eats it, and then randomly
chooses another can good. What is the probability that Rosey chose a beef
loaf, and then, a sardine?

Group 3:
A basket contains 6 candies, 5 marshmallows, 4 gummy bears, and 5
lollipops. Ash randomly chooses one piece of sweet, eats it, and chooses
another piece of sweet. If Ash ate two the same sweets, what is the
probability that she chose two lollipops?

Group 4:
Sean has 4 black pens, 3 blue pens, and 2 red pens in his pocket. Sean
randomly picks two pens out of his pocket. What is the probability that
Sean picked a black pen and a red pen, if he replaced the first pen back in
his pocket before choosing another pen?

EVALUATE
Solve the problems involving Independent and Dependent Events. PPT presentation
1. A bag of jelly beans contains 10 red, 6 green, 7 yellow, and 5
orange jelly beans. What is the probability of randomly choosing a
red jelly bean, replacing it, and then randomly choosing an orange
jelly bean?
2. A box contains 7 white marbles and 7 red marbles. What is the
probability of drawing 2 white marbles and 1 red marble in
succession without replacement?

EXTEND
Describe a situation in your life that involves dependent and independent
events. Explain why the events are dependent or independent. Write your
journal on your activity notebook.
