1. The table below describes the distribution of a random sample S of 100 individuals, organized by gender and whether they are right- or left-handed.
|
Right-handed |
Left-handed |

Male |
43 |

Female |

Let’s denote the events M = the subject is male, F = the subject is female, R = the subject is right-handed, L = the subject is left-handed. Compute the following probabilities:
- P(M)
- P(F)
- P(R)
- P(L)
- P(M AND R)
- P(F AND L)
- P(M OR F)
- P(M OR R)
- P(F OR L)
- P(M')
- P(R|M)
- P(F|L)
- P(L|F)

- Find P(musician is a female).
- Find P(musician is a male AND had private instruction).
- Find P(musician is a female OR is self taught).
- If three musicians are randomly selected, with replacement, find the probability they are all self-taught.
- If three musicians are randomly selected, without replacement, find the probability they are all males.
- At a college, 72% of courses have a final exam. If we randomly select 5 courses, find the probability that they all have a final exam.
- The casino game, roulette, allows the gambler to bet on the probability of a ball, which spins in the roulette wheel, landing on a particular color, number, or range of numbers. The table used to place bets contains of 38 numbers, and each number is assigned to a color and a range.
- List the sample space of the 38 possible outcomes in roulette.
- You bet on red. Find P(red).
- You bet on -1st 12- (1st Dozen). Find P(-1st 12-).
- You bet on an even number. Find P(even number).
- Is getting an odd number the complement of getting an even number? Why?

- Complete the table.
- What is the probability that a randomly selected child will have wavy hair?
- What is the probability that a randomly selected child will have either brown or blond hair?
- What is the probability that a randomly selected child will have wavy brown hair?
- What is the probability that a randomly selected child will have red hair, given that he or she has straight hair?
- If B is the event of a child having brown hair, find the probability of the complement of B.
- If two children are randomly selected with replacement, find the probability that they both have red hair?
- If two children are randomly selected without replacement, find the probability that they both have red hair?
