Consider a classroom with 10 students, including 3 of your friends (you are not in the class). Suppose you are waiting outside the room to meet the 3 friends after the class. Assume that people leave the room in fully random fashion. What is the probability that the first three people leaving the room will be your friends? Express your answer as a fraction in its simplest form.
Homework Answers
Combination formula: nCr = n!/(r! x (n-r)!)
P(first three people leaving the room will be your friends) = 1/Number of ways in which 3 out of 10 people can come out
= 1/10C3
= 1/[10!/(3! x 7!)]
= 1/120

You are planning a night out with your friends, which will include dinner and a concert. Your plan is to get dinner near your apartment, then taxi to the concert venue. A taxi will fit at most 4 people, so if there are 5-8 people in your group, you will need two taxis; if there are 1-4 people, you will only need one taxi. Suppose that you invite 6 people (not including yourself), that each person has a 75% chance...

Consider a classroom with dimensions 10 m by 20 m by 3 m. You have a two-liter flask containing, at room temperature and pressure, a harmless gas not normally found in air, such as sulfur hexafluoride (SF6). If the gas in the flask is released and mixed thoroughly throughout the classroom, what is the final concentration of the gas in parts per million by volume?
