Two events are independent if the result of the second event is not affected by the result of the first event.

Two events are dependent if the result of the first event affects the outcome of the second event so that the probability is changed.

In the problem in the question, the first marble drawn is not replaced, and thus the probability of the second draw will change because the sample size reduces.

Therefore, both events are DEPENDENT.
