A jar contains 4 Orange, 3 Blue, and 2 Green marbles.

(a) Two marbles are selected one at a time at random without replacement, so order is observed in the sample. Define the events:A=“the first marble is Orange”, B= “the second marble is Orange”. Find(i)P(A), (ii)P(B), (iii)P(A∪B) =P(at least one Orange marble is obtained in the 2 draws).

Show your work.

(b) Suppose instead three marbles are chosen at random from the jar by choosing 3 in one hand; no or-der is observed. What is the probability that the sample of 3 marbles contains 1 marble of each color?

A jar contains 2 green marbles, G1 and G2, and 4 yellow marbles, Y1, Y2, Y3, and Y4. Imagine that we do not know this. Suppose that our parameter p of interest is the proportion of marbles in the jar that are green. We will be allowed to take three marbles out the jar (all at once, without replacement). We will estimate p by looking at ˆp, the proportion of marbles in our sample that are green. (a) Write down...
