In the game Mastermind, one player guesses a four-color code (represented by pegs). There are 9 colors to choose from. The order of the colors matters, and let's say the code has four unique colors. Define the events Y, B, and R as follows: Y: The third peg is yellow. B: The first peg or the third peg is blue. R: The code contains a red peg and white peg consecutively (in that order). a Calculate the probability of each event: p(B), p(R), and p(Y) b What is p(BY)? c What is p(BIR)? d What is p(R/Y)? e Consider all pairs of events: (B,Y). (B, R), and (R,Y). Which pairs are events are independent and which pairs are not independent? Justify your answers using one of the independence tests we learned.
