I hit two traffic lights on my way to work each morning. Both lights operate independently. The probability both lights will be red is 0.22. The probability the first light is red and the second light is NOT red is 0.33. What is the probability the second light will be red when I reach it?
If Jackson turns on his favorite TV station at a randomly selected time, the probability that the current show will be on a commercial break is 0.35. Which of the following is the correct interpretation of this probability? 35% of the money that Jackson’s favorite TV channel makes comes from advertising. For every 100 minutes Jackson watches his favorite TV station, 35 of those minutes will be taken up by commercials. Tomorrow, Jackson's favorite TV station will run commercials for 35% of the air time. If you take a very large sample of the times Jackson tunes in to his favorite TV station, a commercial will be on about 35% of the time.

When Mitchell drives back home from campus, he has to pass through two sets of traffic lights. The probability that he has to stop at the first is 0.33, while the probability he has to stop at the second set is 0.41. Also, the probability he does not have to stop at either traffic light is 0.31. What is the probability he has to stop at exactly one set of traffic lights?
Every summer, Madison goes on a week- long canoe trip with her childhood camp friends. After the trip, she usually purchases some oars from the destination city. Her collection of oars is organised by year and type of wood. The probability that an oar was purchased in 2013 is 0.4, the probability that it was made from spruce wood is 0.4 and the probability that it was purchased in 2013 and was made from spruce wood is 0.1. What is the probability that a randomly chosen oar was purchased in 2013 or was made from spruce wood?
