standard_description: Generate a number or shape pattern that follows a given rule. Identify apparent features of the pattern that were not explicit in the rule itself. For example, given the rule “Add 3” and the starting number 1, generate terms in the resulting sequence and observe that the terms appear to alternate between odd and even numbers. Explain informally why the numbers will continue to alternate in this way.
problem_activity: Task
Cecil has two six-sided dice, a red one and a white one.
If Cecil throws the two dice, what is the probability that the red die is a 1?  What is the probability that the sum of the dice is 7?
Are the two events described part (a) independent?  Explain.
What is the probability that the red die is a 2?
What is the probability that the sum of the two dice is 10?
Are the two events described in part (c) independent?  Explain.
