D: Tables of outcomes Tables of outcomes are tables which compare two categorical variables. Usually a result from a survey. To estimate probabilities, extend the tables to include totals.

22E Compound Events
Example of Compound Events
Independent Events Events are independent if the occurrence of either of them does not affect the probability that the others occur.
More super fun examples
Dependent Events Two or more events are dependent if they are not independent. Events are dependent if the occurrence of one of the events does affect the occurrence of the other event.
Suppose a hat contains 5 red and 3 blue tickets. One ticket is randomly chosen, its colour is noted, and it is then put aside (not put back in the hat). A second ticket is then randomly selected. What is the chance that it was red? If the first ticket was red, If the first ticket was blue,
Example – Oh boy! A box contains 4 red and 2 yellow tickets. Two tickets are randomly selected from the box one by one without replacement. Find the probability that: a) Both are red

Used when outcomes are not too numerous. Thank goodness!
