1-
Two coins are flipped, followed by rolling a die as many times
as the number
of heads shown.
(a) What is the probability of getting fewer than 5 dots in
total?
(b) Given that there were exactly 3 dots in total, what is the
conditional
probability that the coins showed exactly one head?
2-
Four people are dealt 13 cards each. You (one of the players)
got one ace.
What is the probability that your partner has the other three
aces?
3-
Two shooters are shooting two shots each at a target. The
probability of the
event “the first shooter hits the target” is 0.7 for each shot and
the probability for
the second shooter is 0.8. What is the probability of both shooters
missing the
target?
4-
Suppose the experiment consists of rolling two dice (red and
green), the event
A is: “the total number of dots equals 6”, B is: “the red die shows
an even number”.
Compute P(B/A).
