Answer:

dependent, 39/155

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the checkers are not replaced, the events are dependent since the number of checkers in the bag  when you pick the second time depends on the first pick.

31 checkers—13 red and 18 black.

P(red) = red/ total

          = 13/31

Keep the checker

Then 30 checkers—12 red and 18 black.

P(black) = black/ total

          = 18/30 = 3/5

P ( red, keep,black) = 13/31 *3/5

                                   39/155
