Answer: A and C are independent events

Given: A coin is tossed three times. A = first toss is head, B= second toss is head, C=exactly two heads are tossed in a row. Check the independence of C and A

Hint: Check P\left ( A\cap B \right )=P\left ( A \right )P\left ( B \right )

Solution

As we know, Two events are said to be independent if the product of the events are equal to their intersection. i.e. P\left ( A\cap B \right )=P\left ( A \right )P\left ( B \right )

                    \begin{aligned} &\mathrm{S}=\left\{\begin{array}{l} (\mathrm{HHH}),(\mathrm{HHT}),(\mathrm{HTH}),(\mathrm{HTT}), \\ (\mathrm{THH}),(\mathrm{THT}),(\mathrm{TTH}),(\mathrm{TTT}) \end{array}\right\} \\ \end{aligned}

                     \begin{aligned} &P(A)=\frac{2}{8}=\frac{1}{4} \\ &P(B)=\frac{4}{8}=\frac{1}{2} \\ &P(C \cap A)=\frac{1}{8}=P(C) P(A) \end{aligned}

    A and C are independent events
