Two different litters of kittens have been born: one with two brown-haired and one gray-haired (litter 1), and the other with three brown-haired and two gray-haired (litter 2). We select a litter at random and then select a kitten at random from the selected litter.
(Round all probabilities to four decimals)
a) What's the probability that the kitten chosen is brown-haired?
b) Given that a brown-haired kitten was selected, what is the probability that it was from litter 1?

A friend has two kittens (one brown and the other black) and is offering one to you. You only want a kitten if it is female. The friend asks her veterinarian if at least one of the kittens is female. The veterinarian replies, “Yes!” What is the probability that if you select the black kitten, it is a female? List all of the possible outcomes given that at least one of the cats is a female.

According to Masterfoods, the company that manufactures M&M's, 12% of peanut M&M's are brown, 15% are yellow, 12% are red, 23% are blue, 23% are orange and 15% are green. You randomly select four peanut M&M's from an extra-large bag of the candies. (Round all probabilities below to four decimal places; i.e. your answer should look like 0.1234, not 0.1234444 or 12.34%.) Compute the probability that exactly three of the four M&M's are yellow. P(x = 3) Compute the probability...

1.Suppose we have two bowls full of candies. Each bowl contains four different flavours of candy – grape (which are purple), lemon (which are yellow), cherry (which are red) and raspberry (which are also red). (a) [1 Mark] We will randomly select one candy from each bowl. The outcome of interest is the flavour of each of the two candies. Write out the complete sample space of outcomes. (b) [1 Mark] Suppose instead that we randomly select one candy from...

1) In a new lottery game called "Minibucks", you select four numbers between 1 and 29. If you match all four numbers with the four numbers chosen by the lottery that day, you win the jackpot. (It doesn't matter whether the order that the lottery selected the numbers matches the order that you selected the numbers). What is the minimum number of different Minibucks tickets you would need to buy for one drawing in order to be 100% certain to...

You plan to conduct a marketing experiment in which students are to taste one of two different brands of soft drink. Their task is to correctly identify the brand tasted. You select a random sample of 200 students and assume that the students have no ability to distinguish between the two brands. (Hint: If an individual has no ability to distinguish between the two soft drinks, then the two brands are equally likely to be selected.) What is the probability that the sample will have between 55% and 61%...

The image below represents a collection of numbered, colored
cubes that have been placed in one of four colored bins. Imagine
these props will be used in games of chance, like what you would
see at a casino night fund raiser.
To play, a contestant chooses a single cube
from one of the bins. You will create the rules that determine
whether they win or lose.
Define rules for four different games. The rules for each game
must specify what...
