Answer:

  A.  no, not independent

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A = "father born in Michigan" and B = "mother born in Michigan".

If A and B are independent, then ...

  P(A|B) = P(A)

The table tells us ...

  P(A|B) = P(A&B)/P(B) = 0.29/0.73 ≈ 0.397

and

  P(A) = 0.48

Since 0.48 ≠ 0.397, we must conclude that the events are not independent.
