Pablo chooses a colored marble from a mixed bag and writes down the color. Pablo leaves it out and then draws another.
A
Independent
B
Dependent
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Independent Events: the probability of one event DOES NOT effect the probability of a 2nd event. Dependent Events: the probability of one event DOES effect the probability of a 2nd event.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer: HENCE, the probability of getting any one colour is 1.

Detailed explanation-3: -For example, if a dice is rolled 6000 times and the number ‘5’ occurs 990 times, then the experimental probability that ‘5’ shows up on the dice is 990/6000 = 0.165. For example, the theoretical probability that the number ‘5’ shows up on a dice when rolled is 1/6 = 0.167.

Detailed explanation-4: -Independent events: Two events are independent when the outcome of the first event does not influence the outcome of the second event.
