Q. A customer selects a brand of pineapple juice to buy for his family at the supermarket. In a different city, another customer also happens to pick a brand of juice to buy.\newlineAre these two events dependent or independent?\newlineChoices:\newline(A) dependent\newline(B) independent
  1. Determine Brand Influence: We need to determine if the choice of one customer in selecting a brand of pineapple juice affects the choice of another customer in a different city selecting a brand of juice. Since the two customers are in different cities and there is no given relationship between their choices, we can assume that the choices are made independently of each other.
  2. Consider Independent Choices: Since the choices are made independently, the events are independent. The selection of one customer does not influence or change the probability of the selection of the other customer.
