A jar of 150 jelly beans contains 22 red jelly beans, 38
yellow, 20 green, 28 purple, 26 blue, and the rest are orange.
Let B = the event of getting a blue jelly bean
Let G = the event of getting a green jelly bean.
Let O = the event of getting an orange jelly bean.
Let P = the event of getting a purple jelly bean.
Let R = the event of getting a red jelly bean.
Let Y = the event of getting a yellow jelly bean.
Find P(B).
A student goes to the library. Let events B = the student checks out a book and D = the student checks out a DVD. Suppose that P(B) = 0.40, P(D) = 0.30 and P(D|B) = 0.5.
a. Find P(B′).
b. Find P(D AND B).
c. Find P(B|D).
d. Find P(D AND B′).
e. Find P(D|B′).
Write the symbols for the probability that a player is an infielder or is not a great hitter.
Use the following information to answer the next two exercises. You are rolling a fair, six-sided number cube. Let E = the event that it lands on an even number. Let M = the event that it lands on a multiple of three.
What does P(E|M) mean in words?
What is conditional probability?
