(Lecture 8) 1. Determine whether the two given events are independent.
A fair coin is tossed twice. The events are "head on the first" and "tails on the second."
The two events are (1) (1) not independent.
independent. 2. The table shows the result of a restaurant survey.
Meals Service good Service poor Total
Lunch 38 48 86 Dinner 24 19 43 Total 62 67 129 Find the probability the service was good , given that the meal was dinner.
The probability the service was good , given that the meal was dinner , is (Type an integer or a simplified fraction.) . 3. A pet store has 12 puppies, including 5 poodles, 5 terriers, and 2 retrievers. If Rebecka and Aaron, in that order, each select one puppy at random with replacement (they may both select the same one), find the probability that they both select a poodle.
The probability is .
(Type an integer or a simplified fraction.)
4. A pet store has 14 puppies, including 4 poodles, 5 terriers, and 5 retrievers. If Rebecka and Aaron, in that order, each select one puppy at random with replacement (they may both select the same one), find the probability that Rebecka selects a terrier and Aaron selects a retriever.
The probability is (Type an integer or a fraction.) . 5. A pet store has 13 puppies, including 3 poodles, 5 terriers, and 5 retrievers. If Rebecka and Aaron, in that order, each select one puppy at random without replacement, find the probability that both select a poodle.
The probability is .
(Type an integer or a simplified fraction.)
6. A pet store has 10 puppies, including 3 poodles, 6 terriers, and 1 retriever. Rebecka and Aaron, in that order, each select one puppy at random without replacement. Find the probability that Aaron selects a retriever, given Rebecka selects a retriever.
The probability is .

Three are jellyÂfilled, 6 are lemonÂfilled, and 15 are custardÂfilled. You randomly select one donut, eat it, and select another donut. Find the probability of selecting a lemon Âfilled donut followed by a jelly Âfilled donut. (Type an integer or a simplified fraction.)
 
 
8. Given two events A and B within the sample space S, P(A|B) =  
 
 
  n(A and B)
n(B) . Use this result to find the probability P(spade|black ) when a single card is drawn from a standard 52Âcard deck.
P(spade|black ) = (Type an integer or a fraction.)
9. Given events A and B within the sample space S, the following formula can be used to compute conditional probabilities. P(B|A) =  
 
 
  n(A and B)
n(A) Use this result to find the probability P(heart | red ) when a single card is drawn from a standard 52Âcard deck.
P(heart | red ) = (Simplify your answer.) 10. Suppose a coin is biased so that it has the probabilities below for landing on heads (h) or tails (t) on a single toss of the coin.
P(h) = 0.5440 
 
 
and 
 
 
P(t) = 0.4560
If this coin is tossed twice, find the probability P(hh ).
P(hh ) =
(Type an integeror decimal rounded to four decimal places as needed.)
11. Explain in words what is meant by "expected value of a random variable."
Choose the best answer below.
A. Given a random variable and it's probability, the expected value is the product of the value of the variable and the probability.
B. Given a random variable with different values, each with their own probability, the expected value of the random variable is like a weighted average of the values and their respective probabilities.
C. Given a random variable with different values, the average of these values is the expected value of the random variable.
D. Given a random variable, it's expected value is the probability of the occurence of the variable.
12. You are playing a game in which you flip 3 fair coins. It costs $3 to play the game, which must be subtracted from your winnings. Calculate the expected net winnings for the game. If all coins show the same (all heads or all tails), you win $10 , otherwise, you lose your $3.
The expected net winnings of the game are $ https://xlitemprod.pearsoncmg.com/api/v1/print/math . 2/3 7/5/2016 HW 8: Probability Day 3 (Lecture 8)-Benny Jones 13. A usedÂcar dealer gets complaints about his cars as shown in the table.
Number of complaints per day
Probability 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 0.01 0.06 0.16 0.22 0.35 0.11 0.09 Find the expected number of complaints per day.
The expected number of complaints per day is (Do not round your answer.) . 14. Twenty thousand raffle tickets are sold. One first prize of $3000 , two second prizes of $500 , and three third prizes of $200 each will be awarded, with all winners selected randomly. If you purchased one ticket, what are your expected gross winnings?
The expected gross winnings are cents.
(Round your answer to the nearest whole cent.)
15. In a certain city, projections for the next year indicate there is a 20% chance that electronics jobs will increase by 1300 , a 50% chance that they will increase by 500 , and a 30% chance they will decrease by 700. Find the expected change in the number of electronics jobs in that city in the next year.
The expected change is an increase of https://xlitemprod.pearsoncmg.com/api/v1/print/math jobs. 3/3
