**Problem Analysis and Probability Calculation**
**1. Event Definitions and Tasks**
(A) Find \( P(F | E) \).
(B) Test events \( E \) and \( F \) for independence.
**46. Problem 46**
Repeat Problem 45 with the following events:
- \( E \): Pointer lands on an odd number.
- \( F \): Pointer lands on a prime number.
Compute the indicated probabilities in Problems 47 and 48 by referring to the probability tree given below.
**Probability Tree Diagram:**
The tree starts with a single node labeled "Start" branching into two paths:
1. Branch leading to M:
- Probability of branching: 0.3
- Subsequent branch:
- M to R with probability 0.2
2. Branch leading to N:
- Probability of branching: 0.7
- Two subsequent branches:
- N to S with probability 0.8
- N to R with probability 0.6
**Given Problems:**
**47. Calculate the following probabilities:**
(A) \( P(M \cap S) \)
(B) \( P(R) \)
**48. Calculate the following probabilities:**
(A) \( P(N \cap R) \)
(B) \( P(S) \)
**49. Coin Toss Scenario:**
A fair coin is tossed twice. Consider the sample space:
\( S = \{ HH, HT, TH, TT \} \)
The events of interest are:
- \( E_1 \): A head on the first toss.
- \( E_2 \): A tail on the first toss.
- \( E_3 \): A tail on the second toss.
- \( E_4 \): A head on the second toss.
For each pair of events, discuss whether they are independent and whether they are mutually exclusive.
(A) \( E_1 \) and \( E_4 \)
(B) \( E_1 \) and \( E_2 \)
