7. At an international 100 m race, there are 4 Americans, 2 Jamaicans, 2 Canadians, 1 Russian, and 1 Chinese runner competing. Assuming all possible outcomes for the race are equally likely, what is the probability that the first, second, and third places are won by runners from 3 different countries?

Step 1: Doyle, a professional poker player, is at the poker table. As he sits at the table looking at his hand and at the upturned cards on the table, Doyle has seen 24 cards, and the only hearts are the 2 in his hand. None of other players have any hearts. The full deck contains 13 hearts among its 52 cards. Doyle is hoping the next three cards dealt to him will be hearts. This outcome would give him...
A fair die has the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 on its faces. Each face is equally likely to come up on a roll. You are conducting an experiment. You roll the die and record the number rolled. Then you roll the die again and add this second number to the first numbered rolled. The outcome of the experiment is this sum. List all of the possibilities for outcomes of this experiment?
In a lottery game, a player picks 4 numbers from 1 to 46. If 2 of those 4 numbers match those drawn, the player wins third prize. Let's walk through the steps to determine the probability of winning third prize. In how many ways can 2 winning numbers be chosen from the possible 4 numbers? In how many ways can 2 non-winning numbers be chosen from the pool of all non-winning numbers? The number of favorable outcomes would be to...
Conditional expectations Let 2 - 0, 1)3, that is, all possible (ordered) triples of zeros and ones. Suppose that all outcomes have equal probability. We define three random variables Xi, X2, and X3 on this space representing the first, second, and third digit, respectively. We also define (i) Compute the values (across S2) of each of the following random variables: (i) What is the probability mass function of E(X2 X)
2. (25 points) Sekora International Casino (SIC) is launching a new game making use of fair 6-sided dice . In phase 1, roll two 6-sided dice and compute the difference between the rolls. Call this difference . In phase 2, roll r dice, and add up the total of the rolls. This is the payout in dollars of the game. (with the numbers 1-6 on the sides). The game proceeds in two phases as follows: (a) (5 points) In the...
1. Consider a fair four-sided die, with sides 1, 2, 3, and 4, that is rolled twice. For example, "1,4" would indicate 1 was rolled first and then 4 was rolled second a) Write down the possible outcomes, i.e., the sample space. (b) List the outcomes in the following events: Event A: The number 4 came up zero times. Event B: The number 4 came up exactly one time. . Event C: The sum of the two rolls is odd...
