It also reported that 62% of those who quit smoking without a nicotine aid began smoking again within 2 weeks and 60% of those who used a nicotine aid began smoking again within 2 weeks. If a smoker who is trying to quit smoking is selected at random, are the events selected smoker who is trying to quit uses a nicotine aid and selected smoker who has attempted to quit begins smoking again within 2 weeks independent or dependent events?
