Another flower is then chosen at random and given to a different woman for her to keep. Both women received a pink rose. Are these events independent or dependent

Answer: These events are dependent.

Step-by-step explanation: The probability of the second woman getting a pink rose is affected by the first woman getting a pink rose as the pink rose obtained by the first woman was not replaced. Hence there are less pink roses in the flower vase and hence lower probability that the second woman gets a pink rose. These events are thus dependent.
