Unit #5
You select an employee at random from all those in a large company. An employee can be either male or female, and can be under 30 years old, between 30 and 45 years old, or over 45 years old. The table below gives the probability of each of the six possible age and gender combinations for a randomly selected employee.The probability that I do not select a male over 45 years old is

In an instant lottery, your chances of winning are 0.1. If you play the lottery five times and outcomes are independent, the probability that you win all five times is
Unit #5
I draw two cards from a well-shuffled deck, without replacement. What is the probability that I will draw two aces?
Unit #5
In a particular game, a fair die is tossed. If the number of spots showing is either 4 or 5 you win $1; if the number of spots showing is 6 you win $4; and if the number of spots showing is 1, 2, or 3 you win nothing. If it costs you $1 to play the game, the probability that you get back exactly what you paid is

Suppose we roll a red die and a green die. Let A be the event that the number of spots showing on the red die is three or less and B be the event that the number of spots showing on the green die is more than three. The events A and B are

In an instant lottery, your chances of winning are 0.2. If you play the lottery five times and outcomes are independent, the probability that you win all five times is
Unit #5
An event A will occur with probability 0.5. An event B will occur with probability 0.6. The probability that both A and B will occur is 0.1. If we know that B occurred, what is the probability that A occurred too? In other words, what is the conditional probability of A given B -- P(A|B)?
Unit #5
Event A occurs with probability 0.3 and event B occurs with probability 0.4. If A and B are independent, we may conclude
