2. Suppose that you are given five shapes, each containing a number, as shown below: 1 2 3 (i) You choose exactly one shape at random. Assuming that the probability of choosing each shape is equal, what is the expected number of sides of the shape that you select? (ii) We repeat the experiment in part (i), but now suppose that each number describes the probability that you choose that shape (out of 10). For example, the triangle with a 4 will be chosen with a probability of 4/10, while the square 2 will be chosen with a probability 2/10. What is the expected number of sides?

. To save time Nivaldo's chemistry professor grades only 3 randomly chosen problems of a 12-problem assignment. Suppose that Nivaldo has 9 out of 12 problems correct on the assignment. a) Compute the probability that the 3 chosen problems are correct (Nivaldo scores 100%). b) Compute the probability that all 3 chosen problems are incorrect (Nivaldo scores 0%). c) Compute the expected value of the number of correct problems chosen by the professor.

I want to confirm if my answers are correct and if not, how would I approach this problem?
I had to correct this question so please answer. Please Answer correctly and read carefully deals with the general multiplication rule in probability. question: suppose that we are going to roll two fair 6- sided dice. Find the probability that both dice show a 3. (look at the information provided within the picture.) chose 1 answer choice: A.) P(both 3)= 1\2 B.) P(both 3)= 1\3 C.) P(both 3)= 1\12 D.) P(both 3)= 1\36
COIN TOSS A. Determine the probability of your outcomes from the following: i. Tossing 2 coins (All heads) ii. Tossing 3 coins (2 heads and 1 tail) iii. Tossing 4 coins (2 tails and 2 heads) B. Prepare 10pcs of one-peso coin individually. Find a partner for the coin tossing activity. Each partner must take turns in tossing all ten coins 5 times. For each turn, shake 10 coins and drop them about 3 feet above the surface. Each will count the number of coins landing heads up and the number of coins landing tails up. They each will record their (a) own count of coin tosses, (b) the partner’s total count of coin tosses.
3. Probability is a branch of mathematics that deals with calculating the likelihood of a given event's occurrence, which is expressed as a number between 1 and 0. i. If a fair 6-sided die is rolled once. If A is the event of "rolling an odd number," write out A and A° а. b. If A = {1,2,3,4} and B = {4,5,6}, write out A°, B°, AB, and AUB. i. When two fair die are thrown together: a. What is the probability that the dice total is 4?
