Let S = {1, 2, . . . , n} and suppose that A and B are, independently, equally likely to be any of the 2n subsets (including the null set and S itself) of S.
(a) Show that
P{A B} =
Hint: Let N(B) denote the number of elements in B. Use
P{A B} =P{A (B|N(B) = i}P{N(B) = i}
Show that P{AB = 脴} =
A couple has children. What is the probability that both are girls if the older of the two is a girl ?
Consider a sample of size drawn in the following manner: We start with an urn containing white and red balls. At each stage, a ball is drawn and its color is noted. The ball is then returned to the urn, along with an additional ball of the same color. Find the probability that the sample will contain exactly
(a) white balls;
(b) white ball;
(c) white balls;
(d) white balls.
Prove that if are independent events, then
Urn has white and black balls. Urn has white and black balls. We flip a fair coin. If the outcome is heads, then a ball from urn is selected, whereas if the outcome is tails, then a ball from urn is selected. Suppose that a white ball is selected. What is the probability that the coin landed tails?
