a) Two balls are drawn without replacement from an urn containing 12 balls, of which 7 are white and 5 are black. Find the probability that: (i) Both balls will be white (ii) Both balls will be the same color (iii) At least one of the balls will be white
b) Repeat part (a) but with the balls drawn with replacement
Total number of balls = 12
Number of white balls = 7
Number of black balls = 5
(a) Without replacement,
(i) P(both will be white) = 7/12 x 6/11
= 0.3182
(ii) P(both will be same color) = P(both white) + P(both black)
= 0.3182 + 5/12 x 4/11
= 0.3182 + 0.1515
= 0.4697
(iii) P(at least one white) = 1 - P(both black)
= 1 - 0.1515
= 0.8485
(b) With replacement,
(i) P(both will be white) = 7/12 x 7/12
= 0.3403
(ii) P(both will be same color) = P(both white) + P(both black)
= 0.3403 + 5/12 x 5/12
= 0.3403 + 0.1736
= 0.5139
(iii) P(at least one white) = 1 - P(both black)
= 1 - 0.1736
= 0.8264

An urn contains 12 blue, 6 yellow, and 9 black balls. Two balls are drawn at random. i. What is the probability that two black balls are drawn in succession when chosen without replacement? Give your answer correct to 3 decimal places. ii. What is the probability that two black balls are drawn in succession when chosen with replacement? Give your answer correct to 3 decimal places.
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.
Four balls are selected at random without replacement from an urn containing three white balls and five blue balls. Find the probability that two or three of the balls are white.
(1 point) An urn has 3 red, 5 white, and 3 blue balls in an urn and two are drawn one after another without replacement. What is the probability that the two balls are both red given that they are the same color?
Urn I contains 5 white balls and 5 black balls. Urn II contains 7 white balls and 3 black balls. Under which of the following plans is the probability of getting two white balls the greatest? (a) Draw one ball from each urn. (b) Draw two balls from Urn I. (c) Put all 20 balls in one urn and then draw two.
An urn contains 7 white balls and 3 black balls. Two balls are selected at random without replacement. What is the probability :1 The first ball is black and the second ball is white.? 2: One ball is white and the other is black? 3:the two balls are white ?
An urn contains 5 blue balls, 3 yellow balls and 2 red balls. Three balls are drawn without replacement. (i) What is the probability that all three balls are blue? (ii) What is the probability that two balls are blue and one ball is yellow? (iii) What is the probability that at least one of the balls is blue?
An urn contains 7 white, 3 red and 10 black balls. If five balls are drawn at random, find the probability that at least one red ball is selected.
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.
