At tryouts, the coach has everyone randomly choose a number from a hat to decide the order in which they will perform. Nicole picks a number first and gives it to the coach. Diane picks a number second. Are these events dependent or independent?

independent ?

help pls

Diane cannot pick the same number that Nicole drew. Had Nicole put the number back in the hat, these events would be independent. Since Nicole gave the number to the coach, anyone following Nicole has different opportunities. This is a dependent relationship.
