You can put this solution on YOUR website! When looking through a drawer i found:
6 pairs of scissors,
4 buttons,
7 paper clips,
13 pieces of paper,
2 rubber bands,
1 marble,
8 unsharpened pencils,
3 ball point pens,
1 sharpie.
-----------------------------------
Find the following probabilities and label independent/dependent
P(a piece of paper)= = 13/45
---
P(2 rubber bands) with replacement = (2/45)^2
---------------------
P(4 unsharpened pencils) without replacement = 8C4/45C4 = 70/148995
------------------------
P ($100 bill) = 0
----------------------
