The letters in the word STATISTICS are printed on identical index cards with one letter per card. The ten cards are then placed in a hat, and one card is randomly chosen (without looking) from the hat. The chance process we are interested in is what letter is on the selected card. Consider the following events: V: the letter chosen is a vowel. F: the letter chosen falls in the first Are the events V and F independent or not independent? Explain.
