A probability experiment is conducted in which the sample space of the experiment is S = {11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22}. Let event E= (12,13,14,15,16,17} and event F = {16,17,18,19}. List the outcomes in E and F. Are E and F mutually exclusive?

A company did a study of available vacation time for their staff employees over the past years. They determined the probability a staff employee selected at random has 2 weeks’ vacation was 45%, 1 week vacation 10%, 3 weeks’ vacation 20%, and more than 3 weeks’ vacation was 25%. The company randomly selects 20 employees. What is the probability that out of the 20 selected, at least 2 workers have 1 week vacation time?

According to Mendel’s theory, if tall and colorful plants are crossed with short and colorless plants, the corresponding probabilities are 9/16, 3/16, 3/16, and 1/16 for tall and colorful, tall and colorless, short and colorful, and short and colorless, respectively. If 8 plants are selected, find the probability that 1 will be tall and colorful, 3 will be tall and colorless, 3 will be short and colorful, and 1 will be short and colorless.(4 decimal digits)
