For the following problems, write the event described in probability notation.  Do this for each event described first.  Then go back and find the probability of each, expressing the answers in fractional form, and decimal (rounded to 4 decimal places).  For example: Event: one marble selected is Red: P(Red) = 12/33 = .3636 For each problem below, we use the following:  A bag contains 33 marbles each with a color and a number. 12 Red labeled 1 – 12, 8 blue labeled 1-8, and 13 whites labeled 1-13.  1.  A single marble is drawn from the bag:Event: The marble selected is white Event:The marble selected is odd Event: The marble meets both of the above requirements

For the following problems, write the event described in probability notation.  Do this for each event described first.  Then go back and find the probability of each, expressing the answers in fractional form, and decimal (rounded to 4 decimal places). 

For example: Event: one marble selected is Red: P(Red) = 12/33 = .3636

For each problem below, we use the following:  A bag contains 33 marbles each with a color and a number. 12 Red labeled 1 – 12, 8 blue labeled 1-8, and 13 whites labeled 1-13. 

1.  A single marble is drawn from the bag:Event:

  1. The marble selected is white
  2. Event:The marble selected is odd
  3. Event: The marble meets both of the above requirements
  4. Event:The marble selected is one of the two above (a, b)
  5. Event:If we assume it is a white marble, it is also even

2.  Three marbles are selected at random from the bag:

  1. Event:  They are all blue
  2. Event:  They are all even
  3. Event:  Exactly 1 blue
  4. Event:  at least 1 blue marble is selected
