Suppose we are about to randomly draw a sample point from the sample space: S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10} where the sample points are equally likely. Consider the following events: A: The number is 2, 3, 4, or 5. B: The number is even. C: The number is 8. Which of the following statements are true? There may be more than one correct statement; check all that are true. Question 13 options: A and C are independent. A and B are independent. B and C are independent. A and Ac are independent.
A card is selected from the four cards shown, and this spinner is spun. c. Using this sample space, find the probability of getting: (1) an Ace and 1 on the spinner (2) a red card and 1 on the spinner (3) a picture card and 2 on the spinner (4) a black card and an odd number on the spinner (5) not an Ace and 3 on the spinner (6) a blue card and 2 on the spinner

A poll of 120 city residents found that 30 had visited the new museum, and that 80 had been to the new park. If it appeared that going to the park and going to the museum were independent events, how many of those polled had been to both? Park O 20 O 15 Museum Yes No Total Hint: P(went to park and went to museum) divided by total people surveyed O 10 Yes ?? No 80 40 Total 30 90 120 OIt cannot be determined.

(b) What is the probability that at least one guest may stay in her chair? Hint: Just write down all the sample points. Don't try to use counting rules.

3. Oil exploration : Let D and E be two events in a sample space. It is given that P (D) = 0.4, P (E) = 0.5 and P (DUE) = 0.8. (a) Are the events D and E disjoint? Are the events D and E independent? Then to oil exploration. We imagine two oil fields. The event B = "oil discovery on field 1", while the complementary event B' = "no oil on field 1". Similarly, the event C = "oil discovery on field 2", while C' = "no oil on field 2". We are given that P (B n C) = 0.06, P (B' n C) = 0.12, P (B n C') = 0.11 and P (B' n C') = 0.71. (b) Find the probability of oil on field 1. Assume that oil has been found on field 2. What is now the probability of oil on field 1? Assume that it has been proven that field 2 does not contain oil. What is now the probability of oil on field 1? Are events B and C independent?
