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?

Attorneys often use lie detectors to test if a suspect is speaking the truth or not. It is found that the lie detector gives a positive result 64% of the time. The suspect is found to lie for 81% of the positive results and 15% of the negative results. a. If a suspect is actually lying, what is the probability that the lie detector gives a positive test result? b. If the suspect is not lying, what is the probability that the lie detector gives a negative result? Note:Answer in exact fraction, or rounded to at least 4 decimal places

Helen plays basketball. Helen must now attempt two free throws. C = the event that Helen succeeds on the first shot with P(C) = 0.50. D = the event Helen succeeds on the second shot with P(D)= 0.50. The probability that Helen succeeds on the second shot given that she succeeds on the first one is 0.63. What is the probability that Helen succeeds in both shots?

Luis is playing a paint ball game. To win, he must capture the flag and choose the correct escape route. The chance that he captures the flag is 62%. The chance that he chooses the correct escape route is 68%. The probability that he does both is 41%. Create a Venn Diagram and determine the probability that: He captures the flag and chooses the correct route He only captures the flag He only chooses the correct route He doesn’t complete either task

You will take either a basket weaving class or a philosophy class, depending on what your advisor decides. You estimate that the probability of getting an A in basket weaving is 0.35 (it is a hard class), while in philosophy your probability of getting an A is 0.84. However, your major is straw construction, and the chance of your advisor choosing the philosophy class is only 40%. What is the probability that you get an A? The probability that you get an A is (Give the exact simplified probability.)
