In order for 2 events to be independent, knowing that one has happened can't really tell us anything about the probability of the other. Knowing that it's sunny can't really tell me anything about the probability of winning the lottery, since the events are unrelated. Now, if they were mutually exclusive on the other hand, that would tell us quite a bit. It would have to mean that there is some mechanism at play, which prevents one event from happening when the other happens. A mechanism means that they would be able to influence each other => no longer independent.
after getting covid one week before exams start, these videos might just be enough to catch me up and get me through, thanks heaps as always
I really feel compelled to add this here: for events to be independent, they MUST overlap. If they don't overlap, they CAN'T be independent!
