Suppose that you have an urn with 500 balls, 100 of which are red and 400 are black. (a) You sample 10 balls at random with replacement. What is the probability that at least 2 of them are red? (b) You sample 10 balls at random without replacement. What is the probability that none of them are red? (expression only)
a) The probability that a randomly selected ball is red in each trial
Let X denotes the number of red balls in a sample 10 balls selected at random with replacement
X ~ Binomial(n = 10, p = 0.2)
The probability mass function of X is
Now,
The probability that at least 2 of them are red
b) Let Y denotes the number of red balls in a sample 10 balls at random without replacement.
Y ~ Hypergeometric(N = 500, M = 100, n = 10)
The probability mass function of Y is
Now,
The probability that none of them are red

(a) There is an urn containing six balls, three of which are red. You make two random draws from the urn without replacement. What is the probability that both of the balls you draw are red?
An urn contains four red balls, six black balls, and five green balls. If two balls are selected at random without replacement from the urn, what is the probability that a red ball and a black ball will be selected? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
Suppose that an urn contains 10 red balls and 4 white balls. Supposed 3 balls are drawn one by one from the urn. What is the probability of getting one red ball and two white balls? Show all work! a) Assume the balls are drawn with replacement. b) Assume the balls are drawn without replacement.
Refer to Example 4.40. An urn contains six red balls, six white balls, and six blue balls, and sample of four balls is drawn at random without replacement. Compute the probability that all of the balls in the sample are the same color. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) b) An urn contains eight red balls, eight white balls, and eight blue balls, and sample of five balls is drawn at random without replacement. Compute the probability that the...
An urn contains 10 red balls. 7 green balls and 4 yellow balls. At random, 5 balls are drawn (without replacement). What is the probability 3 of them are red?
1. From an urn, 10 balls with replacement are selected, the urn contains 14 white balls and 5 red balls. Calculate the probability that less than 3 red balls have come out. 2. From an urn, 10 balls are selected with replacement, the urn contains 14 white balls and 14 red balls. Calculate the probability that at least 3 red balls have come out. 3. From an urn 5 balls without replacement are selected, the urn contains 11 balls, of...

An urn has 3 red balls, 4 white balls and 2 black balls. Each red ball is worth $2 and and each black ball is worth −$3 (note the negative sign). White balls have no value. You draw four balls at random from the urn. (a) What is the size of the sample space? (b) What is the probability that the total value of the four balls is $3?
1. An urn contains 4 red balls, 3 black balls and 2 green balls. We draw two balls at random (without replacement). If at least one of the two balls is red, we draw one more ball and stop. Otherwise, we draw two more balls without replacement. (i) Compute the probability that the last bal is red (NOTE that for this entire question, your notation is at least as impor tant as your final numerical answer. So, for example, do...
1) Suppose that three balls are sampled without replacement from an urn containing 5 red balls and 5 green balls. Find the probability that the sample contains at least one ball of each color 2.) Suppose that a pair of fair dice is rolled and that all 36 outcomes are equally likely. Calculate the probability that the second die lands on a number greater than the first.
