Benny is a messy student who keeps all his colored socks in a box. The box contains a total of 4 blue and 2 yellow socks. On the first day, while running late for class, he randomly selects (without replacement) two socks out of the box to wear. Assume the socks are indistinguishable from one another apart from color.
The next day, Benny selects his socks again, but this time you are told that the first sock he has picked from the box is blue. What can you say about the probability he will end up wearing a matching pair of socks to class, in comparison to the first day?
The probability of him wearing matching socks is higher than that of the first day
The probability of him wearing matching socks is unchanged
The probability of him wearing matching socks is lower than that of the first day
A tennis tournament has n =
on the first day of the tournament. Specifically, the draw process is conducted as follows. The 64 names
are put in a box, and then drawn at random one-by-one without replacement. The two players whose
names are drawn first and second play against each other. The two players whose names are drawn third
and fourth play against each other. And so on: players whose names are drawn in positions 2i–1 and 2i,
for all i = 1,2,...,32, play against each other.
64 players, who are drawn uniformly at random to play against each other
a. Alice and Bob are among the 64 players. What is the probability that they play against each other
on the first day?
b. Of the 64 players, k are left-handed and 64 – k are right-handed. For each k = 2,3,..,32, what
is the probability that none of the k left-handed players play against each other on the first day?

- Among the senior class at a high school, 55% of Ms. Keating's students plan on majoring in a branch of STEM, while 49% of Ms. Lewis's students plan on majoring in a branch of STEM. Suppose Ms. Keating chooses 25 of her students at random and Ms. Lewis chooses 23 of her students at random. Since ngPK, nk (1 - Pk) and n PL, n̟ (1-PL) are all greater than 10, the Normal condition is met. Let K = the proportion of Ms. Keating's students from the sample who plan on majoring in a branch of STEM, and let L= the proportion of Ms. Lewis's students from the sample who plan on majoring in a branch of STEM.

Initially, the two players areat opposite ends of the bridge, at a distance of n feet from each other. (Here nis an arbitrary positive integer.) When it is their turn, they are allowed to jump1, 2, or 3 feet toward each other. The game starts by First making a move first;the game is over when one player is able to capture (jump on top of) the otherplayer.(a) Which player has a strategy to capture the other player if n= 8?(b) What if the initial distance is n= 21 feet?(c) Generalize the problem for all positive integers n.(d) Generalize the problem further to the case when the initial distance is n feetand the players are allowed to jump any (positive) integer number of feetup to k feet. (Here n and k are arbitrary natural numbers.)arrow_forward
- “ You are dealt five cards from a standard deck of 52 cards. How many of these handshave at least one queenandat least one spade. ”He breaks this into two cases. In the first case, he looks at hands which contain the queen of spadesQ♠. There is 1 way of choosing the Queen of Spades, and51C4ways of choosing the other fourcards. In the second case, he will start by choosing a non-spade queen (3 ways) and a non-queenspade (12 ways). There are 50 cards remaining, so he also throws away the Queen of Spades sothat he doesn’t overlap case 1. This gives49C3ways of choosing the last three cards. He concludesthat the answer is51C4+ (3·12·49C3). His answer is incorrect. Explain why, and give the correctanswer.arrow_forwardAfter shuffling a deck of 52 cards, a dealer deals out 5. Let X = the number of suits represented in the five-card hand. (a) Find the pmf of X. (Hint: p(1) = 4P(all are spades), p(2) = 6P(only spades and hearts with at least one of each suit), and p(4) = 4P(2 spades N one of each other suit).)

Suppose Ms. Keating chooses 25 of her students at random and Ms. Lewis chooses 23 of her students at random. Since nKpK, nK (1 – pK) and nLpL, nL (1 – pL) are all greater than 10, the Normal condition is met. Let K = the proportion of Ms. Keating’s students from the sample who plan on majoring in a branch of STEM, and let L = the proportion of Ms. Lewis’s students from the sample who plan on majoring in a branch of STEM. What is the probability that the proportion of students who plan on majoring in a branch of STEM is greater for Ms. Keating? Find the z-table here. 0.338 0.614 0.662 0.841arrow_forward
