Draw an appropriate tree diagram, and use the multiplication principle to calculate the probabilities of all the outcomes. HINT [See Example 3.]It appears that there is only a one in four chance that you will be able to take your spring vacation to the Greek Islands. If you are lucky enough to go, you will visit either Corfu (30% chance) or Rhodes. On Rhodesthere is a 40% chance of meeting a tall, dark stranger, while on Corfu there is no such chance.P(Go to Corfu and meet a tall, dark stranger)P(Go to Corfu and meet no tall, dark stranger)P(Go to Rhodes and meet a tall, dark stranger)P(Go to Rhodes and meet no tall, dark stranger)P(Novacation)==|| || || ||=

In an amusement arcade there is a horse race with horses coloured red, yellow and green. Only one player can play this game at any time and the outcomes of each race are independent of previous races. You can either bet 10p or 20p. If you bet 10p then each horse is equally likely to win. If you bet 20p the corresponding probabilities are 50%, 30% and 20%, respectively. Three times as many people bet 10p as do 20p. Given red wins, what is the probability it had been a 20p bet? 0.333 0.300 0.313 0.298
Three cowboys Doc Holiday, Wyatt Erp, and Wild Bill are locked in a 3-way duel. When the churchbell rings at high noon, all three will draw their guns and fire one shot simultaneously. A hit is registered if a shooter is hit by either of the other two cowboys. Doc Holiday will randomly aim and fire at either Wyatt Erp or Wild Bill, with an even split probability of 0.5 of who he'll shoot at. Being a good shot, he has a 60% chance of hitting the target he fires at. Wyatt Erp will randomly aim and fire at either Doc Holiday or Wild Bill, with an even split probability of 0.5 of who he'll shoot at. Also a good shot, he has a 60% chance of hitting the target he fires at. Wild Bill will randomly aim and fire at either Wyatt Erp or Doc Holiday, with an even split probability of 0.5 of who he'll shoot at. Being a poor shot, he only has a 30% chance of hitting the target he fires at. Let X denote the number of cowboys that are hit after all three take one shot at the same time. a) What are…
(QUEEN'S SECRET AND GENIES) In old days, there was a queen and she had a secret problem to solve. To get an answer to her secret problem, the queen bought one female and one male genie lamps. The probabilities that her secret problem can be solved by the male and female genies are 0.3 and 0.4 respectively. A Queen looking for divine help. Assume the queen keeps the genies independently away from each other with a fear that both could not harm her, what is the probability that the queen's secret problem is solved by at least one of the genies? Note: Please keep accuracy upto two decimal places.
Your probability professor has a tabby cat who sleeps 34% of the time and seems to respond to stimuli more or less randomly. If a human pets her when she’s awake, she will request more petting 8% of the time, food 38% of the time, and a game of fetch the rest of the time. If a human pets her when she’s asleep, she will request more petting 33% of the time, food 41% of the time, and a game of fetch the rest of the time. (You can assume that the humans don’t pet her disproportionally often when she’s awake.) • If the cat requests food when petted, what is the probability that she was asleep? • If the cat requests a game of fetch when petted, what is the probability that she was not asleep?
Please help!!! Q4. Ariana and Bella are playing a game. They each have 4 cards, which are numbered 1, 2, 3 and 4. Each shuffles her own cards and turns one over at random. If the cards show the same number, Ariana wins and Bella must pay Ariana $3. If the cards show different numbers, Bella wins and Ariana must pay Bella $1. By finding the probabilities of Ariana and Bella winning, show whether or not the game is fair.
On Mr. Casper's debate team at Thunderbird High School, 20% of the members are Sophomores, 35% are Juniors and 45% are Seniors. A team member is selected randomly to give the closing argument for the team. If a sophomore gives the closing argument, the team has a probability of 0.25 of winning the debate. If a junior gives the closing argument, the probability of winning is 0.6. If a senior closes, the probability of winning is 0.85. (a) Find the probability that the team wins the debate. b sketch a tree diagram to model this process
A student takes a multiple-choice quiz with 5 questions, each with four possible answers and only oneof them is correct. A passing grade is 60% or better (i.e., answering at least 3 of 5 questions correctly).Suppose that the student was unable to find time to study for the exam and just guesses at eachquestion. Find the probabilities for the two events below.i. the student gets exactly 3 questions correct.ii. the student passes the exam
Students in a class like to secretly use online calculators in their quizzes. There are three such online calculators favoured amongst the students: WolframAlpha (WA), Symbolab (S), and GeoGebra (GG). A student's favourite calculator changes from quiz to quiz according to the following rules: If a student likes WA best, then it is has a 50% chance of remaining their favourite for the next quiz; 25% of becoming S for the next quiz; and 25% of becoming GG for the next quiz. If a student likes S best, then it has a 50% chance of becoming WA for the next quiz, and a 50% chance of becoming GG for the next quiz. If a student likes GG best, then it has a 33.3% chance of becoming any of the three calculators for the next quiz. For the first quiz, there are 120 who count WA as their favourite; 80 who count S as their favourite; and 50 who count GG as their favourite. What is true about the fourth quiz? Choose one of the following: 1. 115 students favour WA; 52 students favour S; and 83…
There are 20 chips in a bag. 10 are blue, 5 are red, 4 are green, and 1 is gold. If you pick the gold chip, you win $12. If you pick a green chip you win $5. If you pick a red chip, you win $4. If you pick a blue chip, you lose $10. Find your expectation for this game.
Kevin is hiring two interns, and all applicants are either enrolled at Reading College (R) or Beekman College (B). He randomly picks two interns from the entire set of applicants. The tree diagram below shows the probabilities of the different outcomes. Based on the diagram, what is the probability of hiring two interns from Reading College? Provide the final answer as a fraction.
But change the problem as follows: The probability that each link is working is 0.95. Also, if the message was transmitted successfully, what is the probability that the middle link was working? (Hint: Messages get sent through all three paths. At least one of the three paths must be successful in order for B to receive the message.)
