A television programmer is arranging the order in which five movies will be seen between the hours of 6 P.M. and 4 A.M. Two of the movies have a \(G\) rating, and they are to be shown in the first two time blocks. One of the movies is rated NC-17, and it is to be shown in the last of the time blocks, from 2 A.M. until 4 A.M. Given these restrictions, in how many ways can the five movies be arranged during the indicated time blocks?
A construction company is planning to bid on a building contract. The bid costs the company \(\$ 1500\). The probability that the bid is accepted is \(\frac{1}{5}\). If the bid is accepted, the company will make \(\$ 40,000\) minus the cost of the bid. Find the expected value in this situation. Describe what this value means.
Write an original problem that can be solved using the Fundamental Counting Principle. Then solve the problem.
Make Sense? Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. In a group of five men and five women, the probability of randomly selecting a man is \(\frac{1}{2}\), so if I select two people from the group, the probability that both are men is \(\frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{2}\).
