Is the event “win the round” dependent on another event? Explain your reasoning.

Create a graph of your data. Make sure to label your graph and that the graph is appropriate for the type of data you have.

Choose an event that you think might influence the probability of winning, then analyze the data using probability to determine whether the event you chose to study is independent of winning. Provide evidence to support your claim.
