An experiment has 40 possible outcomes, all equally likely. An event can occur in 25 ways. The probability that the event is .
Die and coin. Consider the following random experiment : First , roll a die and observe the number of dots facing up: then toss a coin the number of times that the die shows and observe the total number of heads. Thus , if the die shows three dots facing up and the coin (which is then tossed tree times) comes up heads exactly twice, then the outcome of the experiment can be represent as (3,2).
Part (a) Determine a sample space for this experiment.
Part (b) Determine the events that the total number of heads is even.
If you sum the probabilities of the possible values of a discrete random variable, the result always equals .
Refer to the exercise 5.66. Among the events A, B, C and D, identify the collection of events that are mutually exclusive.
What does it mean two events to be mutually exclusive.?
