There are 5 boxes. One box is empty; two boxes each contains one marble; and the remaining two boxes each contains two marbles. Suppose that the colors of the marbles are not known, but it is known that each marble can only be either red or green, with equal probability. Suppose that ONE box is randomly chosen from the 5 boxes, and let R denote the number of the red marble(s) the box has, and G be the number of...

Given the following data (2, 5, 1, 0, 5, 0, 7, 2, 3) Calculate the 3rd quartile from your "data". What's the probability that a randomly selected number from your data is even? Consider the events A = "a randomly selected number from your data is even" and B = "a randomly selected number from your data is above the 3rd quartile". Are these events disjoint, independent, neither, or both? Show your work.

Consider a collection of 10 empty boxes (numbered from 1 to 10) and 5 balls. Suppose that each ball is placed in a box chosen at random. Assume that this placement of a ball in a box is performed independently for each ball. Note that a box may contain more than one ball and that some of the boxes will necessarily remain empty. Hint: Since more than one ball can be placed in the same box, it is best to...
