13. What is probability of having 4 aces from a 52 card deck in a seven card hand? 14. Suppose the events D1 and D2 represent disasters, which are rare: P(D1) = 10-6 and P(D2) = 2 x 10-6 (a) What can you say about the probability that at least one of the disasters occurs? (b) What can you say about the probability that they both occur?
S) Suppose that A and B are mutually exclusive events for which P(A) = 0.3 and P(B) = 0.5 What is the probability that (a) either A or B occurs? (b) A occurs and B does not occur? (c) both A and B occur? 4.) A forest contains twenty elk, of which five are captured, tagged and then released. Some time later, four elk are captured from this population. What is the probability that exactly two of these are tagged?...
Suppose that A and B are mutually exclusive events for which P(A) = 0.2 and P(B) = 0.7. What is the probability that a. either A or B occurs? b. A occurs but B does not? c. both A and B occur? d. neither A nor B occurs?.
Problem 2. Choose an integer at random from -3 to 6. The event A occurs if the chosen number is even, B occurs if the chosen number is smaller than 3; and C occurs if the chosen number is larger than 8. (a) List all the outcomes in Ω and in the events A, B and C. (b) Determine A', AUB, AG, A B, (c) Is A С B? Is B A? Are A and B mutually er clusive? (d)...
4. Consider a bag that contains 221 coins of which 4 are rare Indian pennies. For the given pair of events A and B, complete parts (a) and (b) below. A: When one of the 221 coins is randomly selected, it is one of the 4 Indian pennies B: When another one of the 221 coins is randomly selected (with replacement), it is also one of the 4 Indian pennies. a. Determine whether events A and B are independent or...
Problem 3. Show the formula P((An B)U(A n B))- P(A) +P(B)-2P(AnB), which givgs the probability that exactly one of the events A and B will occur. [Compare with the formula P(AU B) P(A) P(B) - P(AnB), which gives the probability that at least one of the events A and B will occur.]
Hint Draw venn diagrams: Let Cand D be events. Suppose the probability that neither C or D occurs p(C'nD') is 4/5. What is the probability that one or both p(C U D) occur? (1 pt) 2.
1. Suppose that A, B, and C are events such that P[A]- PB0.3, PC 0.55, PIANB]- For each of the events given below in parts (a)-(d), do the following: (i) Write a set expression for the event. (Note that there are multiple ways to write this in many cases.) (ii) Evaluate the probability of the event. Hint: Draw the Venn Diagram. You may then want to identify the probabilities of each of the disjoint regions in the diagram before starting...

Find the probabilities P(A), P(B), PAn B), PC), P D), PIAnD). Problem 3. Show the formula which gives the probability that exactly one of the events A and B will occur. [Compare with the forinula P(A U B) = P(A) + P (B)-P(An B), which gives the probability that at least one of the events A and B will occur.]
