Find the indicated probability. A bag contains 15 balls numbered 1 through 15. What is the...
A lottery game has balls numbered 1 through 15. If a ball is selected at random, what is the probability of selecting a ball showing an even number or the number 12?I thought the answer would be 7 even numbers and 1 for the 12 which would be 8/15 is not an option for the answer.Our choices are 5/4,7,4/5,7/15
(Um Poker) An urn contains 11 red balls numbered 1 through 11, 11 yellow balls numbered 1 through 11, 11 green balls numbered 1 through 11, and 11 black balls numbered 1 through 11. If 4 balls are randomly selected find the probability of getting (a) a flush (ie., all balls the same color) (b) three of a kind. (Three of a kind is 3 balls of one denomination and a fourth ball of a different denomination. e.g., 5,5,5,2) (c)...
Two balls are drawn, without replacement, from a bag containing 13 red balls numbered 1−13 and 4 white balls numbered 14−17. (Enter your probabilities as fractions.) (a) What is the probability that the second ball is red, given that the first ball is white? (b) What is the probability that both balls are even-numbered? (c) What is the probability that the first ball is red and even-numbered and the second ball is even-numbered?
A ball is drawn from a bag containing 13 red balls numbered 1-13 and 3 white balls numbered 14-16. (Enter your probabilities as fractions.) (a) What is the probability that the ball is not even-numbered? (b) What is the probability that the ball is red and even-numbered? (c) What is the probability that the ball is red or even-numbered? (d) What is the probability that the ball is neither red nor even-numbered?
A bag contains 80 balls numbered 1, . . . , 80. Before the game starts, you choose 10 different numbers from amongst 1, . . . , 80 and write them on a piece of paper. Then 20 balls are selected (without replacement) out of the bag at random. (a) What is the probability that all your numbers are selected? (b) What is the probability that none of your numbers is selected? (c) What is the probability that exactly...
asic Statistics Bag 1 contains 5 red balls and 3 black balls. Bag 2 contains a red balls and 1 black ball. Bag 3 contains 4 red balls and 2 black balls. If a bag is selected at random and a ball is drawn, find the probability it will be red (5 marks)
1.3-9. An urn contains four balls numbered 1 through 4 The balls are selected one at a time without replacement. A match occurs if the ball numbered m is the mth ball selected. Let the event A, denote a match on the ith draw i 1,2, 3, 4. 3! (a) Show that P(A)for each i 4! 2! (b) Show that P(A, nA,) =-, i 1! (d) Show that the probability of at least one match is (e) Extend this exercise...
There is a bag full of balls numbered 1 to k. As you reach in to pick one, he notes that they are not all equally likely because of magic: ball 1 is least likely to be chosen, with probability c, where c is some constant. Ball 2 has probability 2c, Ball 3 has probability 3c, . . . , Ball k - 1 has probability (k - 1)c, and Ball k has probability kc. What is the expected value...
A bag contains 6 blue balls, 2 red balls and 1 black ball. If two are selected at random, find the probability of obtaining the black ball.
Two bags contain a number of balls. Bag A contains 4 white and 3 black balls and bag B contains 3 whit and 5 black balls. A ball is chosen at random from bag A and placed into bag B i). Given that the first ball was black, what is the probability that a second ball drawn from bag A will be white? (1 mark) Given no knowledge of the color of the first ball, what is the probability that...
