On a certain hole, a golfer knows that he has a 70% chance of reaching the green (putting surface) in one stroke, 20% in two strokes, 8% in three, and 2% in four or more. If he reaches the green on his first stroke, he has an 80% chance of putting the golf ball in the cup on his second stroke. If he does not reach the green on his first stroke, then he has a 30% chance of putting the golf ball in the cup on his second stroke. What is the probability that the golfer will reach the green in one stroke and put the ball in the cup on his second stroke? 0.09 0.21 0.56 0.80

My neighborhood has a lot of dogs. In fact, when I walk my dog, Wrigley, only 2% of the time do we not see any other dogs. Gary has three dogs (Salsa, Nacho, and Dublin), and we see only Gary and his dogs about 30% of the time when we are on a walk. Lesley has two dogs (Buster and Oreo), and we see only Lesley and her dogs 20% of the time when we are on a walk. Gary and Lesley’s dogs don’t get along; we never see them at the same time. Margo has one dog (Bond), and we see only Margo and Bond 25% of the time when we are on a walk. 10% of the time we see Margo and Lesley. What is the probability that Wrigley and I see both Gary (Salsa, Nacho and Dublin) and Margo (Bond) on a walk? What is the probability we see at least one dog owner on our walk? What is the probability we see only Margo or only Gary? Are the events seeing Gary and seeing Margo independent? EXPLAIN briefly. Are the events of seeing Lesley and seeing Gary mutually exclusive?

You are playing a single joint game with all your fellow students where you have to choose an integer from (0,1,2, .100}. A player's payoff depends on the distance of his answer to 2/3 of the average of all players' answers; the closer the better. Example: Your answer is 45. There are two other players whose answers are 25 and 56. Then, the average is (45+25+56)/3=42. 2/3 of the average is 28. Your distance to 2/3 of the average is 145-28|=17. All players will be ranked according to their answer's proximity to 2/3 of the average. The top 25% of the players get 2 points. The next 50% get 1 point. The bottom 25% get 0 points. (In case of ties, points will be distributed evenly in the enlarged classes.) Please give your answer as a single integer from (0,1,2,3,.100}. A valid submission would look like this: 45
