Which statement about independent and dependent events below is true?

an independent event is affected by the outcome of another event occurring.

a dependent event is affected by the outcome of another event occurring.

there is no difference between an independent event and a dependent event.

The correct answer is C. A dependent event is affected by the outcome of another event occurring.

The word "dependent" refers to the subordinate character of an object under another object, this means that any modification or phenomenon that affects the higher object also affects the subordinate object. On the other hand, the word "independent" refers to an object that has no relationship of inferiority or superiority with others. This means a dependent even is one that is dependent or affected by others, while an independent event is one that is not affected by another event. According to the above, the correct statement referring to a dependent event and an independent event is option C. A dependent event is affected by the outcome of another event occurring.
