A jar has a red ball, a white ball, a blue ball, a green ball, and a yellow ball. A hat has four slips of paper. one slip has the number 1 written on it, another has 2 on it, another has 3 on it and another has 4 on it. A ball is selected from the jar and then a slip of paper is selected from the hat. One outcome is (red,1).
a List the sample space
b. find P(green ball and a non 1 slip of paper)
c. find P(white ball selected given the red ball was not selected)
d. Let A be the event that a yellow ball was selected and B be the event that the slip of paper with a 3 written on it is selected. Show that A and B are independent events using the definition of independent events.
