Step by step solution

01

Given information (part a)

Suppose that one eight cards. Five are green and three are yellow. The five green cards are numbered 1,2,3,4,5. The three yellow cards are numbered 1,2,3. The cards are well shuffled. One card is drawn randomly. Let G= card drawn is green and E= card drawn is even-numbered.

02

Explanation (part a)

Let G= card drawn is green.

E= card drawn is even-numbered.

Sample space consists of all the possible outcomes.

Thus, sample space is defined as

S={(G1),(G2),(G3),(G4),(G5),(Y1),(Y2),(Y3)}

03

Given information (part b)

Suppose that one eight cards. Five are green and three are yellow. The five green cards are numbered 1,2,3,4,5. The three yellow cards are numbered 1,2,3. The cards are well shuffled. One card is drawn randomly. Let G= card drawn is green and E= card drawn is even-numbered.

04

Explanation (part b)

Sample space consists of all the possible outcomes.

Thus, sample space is defined as

S={(G1),(G2),(G3),(G4),(G5),(Y1),(Y2),(Y3)}

Total number of possible outcomes=8

Let G = card drawn is green

Possible outcomes of the event={(G1),(G2),(G3),(G4),(G5)}

Total number of outcomes=5

Thus, the probability that the card drawn is green is calculated as

P(E)=Number of Favourable OutcomesTotal Number of Possible Outcomes

PG=58

05

Given information (part c)

Suppose that one eight cards. Five are green and three are yellow. The five green cards are numbered 1,2,3,4,5. The three yellow cards are numbered 1,2,3. The cards are well shuffled. One card is drawn randomly. Let G= card drawn is green and E= card drawn is even-numbered.

06

Explanation (part c)

Sample space consists of all the possible outcomes.

Thus, sample space is defined as

S={(G1),(G2),(G3),(G4),(G5),(Y1),(Y2),(Y3)}

Total number of possible outcomes=8

Let G= card drawn is green

E= card drawn is even-numbered.

Possible outcomes that card is even numbered={(G2),(G4),(Y2)}

PG|Edenotes the probability that card drawn is green given that card is even-numbered.

Possible outcomes of the event that S=G2,G4

Total number of outcomes=2

Thus, PG|Eis calculated as

localid="1648195838169" P(G|E)=Number of Favourable OutcomesTotal Number of Possible OutcomesPG|E=23

07

Given information (part d)

Suppose that one eight cards. Five are green and three are yellow. The five green cards are numbered 1,2,3,4,5. The three yellow cards are numbered 1,2,3. The cards are well shuffled. One card is drawn randomly. Let G= card drawn is green and E= card drawn is even-numbered.

08

Explanation (part d)

Sample space consists of all the possible outcomes.

Thus, sample space is defined as

S={(G1),(G2),(G3),(G4),(G5),(Y1),(Y2),(Y3)}

Total number of possible outcomes=8

Let G = card drawn is green

Possible outcomes that card green ={(G1),(G2),(G3),(G4),(G5)}

E= card drawn is even-numbered.

Possible outcomes that card is even-numbered={(G2),(G4),(Y2)}

localid="1648906722942" PGANDEdenotes the probability that the card drawn is green and the card is even-numbered.

Possible outcomes of the event that=G2,G4

Total number of outcomes =2

Thus, localid="1648906732755" PGANDEis calculated as

localid="1648906750982" P(GANDE)=card drawn is green and card is even-numberedtotal possible outcomesPGANDE=28PGANDE=14

09

Given information (part e)

Suppose that one eight cards. Five are green and three are yellow. The five green cards are numbered 1,2,3,4,5. The three yellow cards are numbered 1,2,3. The cards are well shuffled. One card is drawn randomly. Let G= card drawn is green and E= card drawn is even-numbered.

10

Explanation (part e)

Sample space consists of all the possible outcomes.

Thus, sample space is defined as

S={(G1),(G2),(G3),(G4),(G5),(Y1),(Y2),(Y3)}

Total number of possible outcomes=8

Let G= card drawn is green and E = card drawn is even number.

Possible outcomes that card is even-numbered=3

localid="1648906854050" P(GORE)=P(G)+P(E)-P(G∪E)P(GORE)=58+38-14P(GORE)=68P(GORE)=34

11

Given information (part f)

Suppose that one eight cards. Five are green and three are yellow. The five green cards are numbered 1,2,3,4,5. The three yellow cards are numbered 1,2,3. The cards are well shuffled. One card is drawn randomly. Let G= card drawn is green and E= card drawn is even-numbered.

12

Explanation (part f)

Sample space:

S={(G1),(G2),(G3),(G4),(G5),(Y1),(Y2),(Y3)}

Total number of possible outcomes=8

Let G=carddrawnisgreen

Possible outcomes that card is even number={(G2),(G4),(Y2)}

E = card drawn is an even number

Possible outcomes that card is greenlocalid="1648197211136" ={G1,(G2),G3,(G4),(G5)}

If two events are mutually exclusive thenPG∪E=PGPE

PG∪E=14PG=58PE=38PGPE=1564PG∪E=PGPE

Thus, the events G and E are not mutually exclusive.

Use the following information to answer the next 12 exercises. The graph shown is based on more than interviews done by Gallup that took place from January through December 2012. The sample consists of employed Americans 18years of age or older. The Emotional Health Index Scores are the sample space. We randomly sample one Emotional Health Index Score.

What is the probability that an Emotional Health Index Score is less than 80.2given that it is already less than 81.

Helen plays basketball. For free throws, she makes the shot 75% of the time. Helen must now attempt two free throws. C = the event that Helen makes the first shot. P(C) = 0.75. D = the event Helen makes the second shot. P(D) = 0.75. The probability that Helen makes the second free throw given that she made the first is 0.85. What is the

probability that Helen makes both free throws?

A box has two balls, one white and one red. We select one ball, put it back in the box, and select a second ball (sampling with replacement). Find the probability of the following events:

a. Let F = the event of getting the white ball twice.

b. Let G = the event of getting two balls of different colors.

c. Let H = the event of getting white on the first pick.

d. Are F and G mutually exclusive?

e. Are G and H mutually exclusive?

United Blood Services is a blood bank that serves more than 500hospitals in 18 states. According to their website, a person with type O blood and a negative Rh factor (Rh-) can donate blood to any person with any blood type. Their data show that 43% of people have type O blood and 15% of people haveRh- factor; 52%of people have type O or Rh- factor.

a. Find the probability that a person has both typeO blood and the Rh- factor.

b. Find the probability that a person does NOT have both type O blood and the Rh- factor

Use the following information to answer the next three exercises. The casino game, roulette, allows the gambler to bet on the probability of a ball, which spins in the roulette wheel, landing on a particular color, number, or range of numbers. The table used to place bets contains of 38numbers, and each number is assigned to a color and a range.

Compute the probability of winning the following types of bets:

a. Betting on two lines that touch each other on the table as in 1-2-3-4-5-6

b. Betting on three numbers in a line, as in 1-2-3

c. Betting on one number

d. Betting on four numbers that touch each other to form a square, as in 10-11-13-14

e. Betting on two numbers that touch each other on the table, as in 10-11or10-13
