A basket contains 100 balls.40 are red,45 are orange and 15 are yellow.Three balls will be drawn out one at a time at random with replacement.Match the probabilities.

(a) P(all three draws are red)

(b) P(all three draws are orange)

(c) P(at least one draw is red)

(d) P(at least one draw is orange)

2.Refer to the previous question about the balls in the basket.Instead of drawing out three balls one at a time with repalcement, suppose we selected balls one at a time at random without replacement until all the yellow balls were removed from the basket. Y=the number of draws necessary.What are the possible values of Y.

(a)[15,16,17,18...] (b)[15,1617,18...100] (c)[0,1,2,3...15] (d)[1,2,3,...85]

(a) P(all three draws are red)

(b) P(all three draws are orange)

(c) P(at least one draw is red)

P(at least one draw is red) = 1 - P(no red draw)

                                      

                                       

(d) P(at least one draw is orange)

P(at least one draw is orange) = 1 - P(no orange draw)

A box contains 100 balls, of which 15% are green, 40% are red, and 45% are spotted. Use simulation to find the probability that if you randomly draw a ball you get a Red Ball. Use the following 20 randomly generated numbers: 97, 52, 61,  87,  07,  48,  73, 49, 23,  75, 18,  15, 70, 34, 67, 40, 48, 98, 49, 70

A computer game simulates drawing three coloured balls from a basket. The basket contains red balls (colour #1), green balls (colour #2) and yellow balls (colour #3). If certain combinations of red, green and/or yellow appear, the player wins the game. The player wins if the first and third balls are the same colour, and the second ball is a different colour from the first and third, or all three balls are the same colour, or the first and second...

Urn 1 contains 10 red balls, 5 green balls and 12 orange. Inside Urn 2 there are 7 red, 13 green, and 20 orange balls. Flip a coin to choose the urn, so there is a 55% chance to heads, you pick urn 1. If you pick tails, you pick urn 2. Then pick a ball from one of the urns after you flip. If you choose an orange ball, pick again but do this only once. a) Draw a...

Bag 1 contains 3 red balls and 7 green balls. Bag 2 contains 8 red balls and 4 green balls. Bag 3 contains 5 red balls and 11 green balls. Bag 1 is chosen twice as often as either Bag 2 or Bag 3 (which have the same probability of being chosen). After a bag is chosen, a ball is chosen at random from that bag.
