A number cube is rolled and a coin is tossed. The number cube and the coin are fair. What is the probability that the number rolled is greater than 3 and the coin toss is heads? Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form Let's review the vitals of this question: [LIST] [*]The probability of heads on a fair coin is 1/2. [*]On a fair die, greater than 3 means either 4, 5, or 6. Any die roll face is a 1/6 probability. [*]So we have a combination of outcomes below: [/LIST] Outcomes [LIST=1] [*]Heads and 4 [*]Heads and 5 [*]Heads and 6 [/LIST] For each of the outcomes, we assign a probability. Since the coin flip and die roll are independent, we multiply the probabilities: [LIST=1] [*]P(Heads and 4) = 1/2 * 1/6 = 1/12 [*]P(Heads and 5) = 1/2 * 1/6 = 1/12 [*]P(Heads and 6) = 1/2 * 1/6 = 1/12 [/LIST] Since we want any of those events, we add all three probabilities 1/12 + 1/12 + 1/12 = 3/12 This fraction is not simplified.

A spinner has 3 equal sections labelled A, B, C. A bag contains 3 marbles: 1 grey, 1 black, and 1 white. The pointer is spun and a marble is picked at random. a) Use a tree diagram to list the possible outcomes.

P(A) = Number of grey marbles / Total Marbles P(A) = [B]1/3[/B] --------------------------------- iii) spinning A and picking a white marble? Since they're independent events, we multiply to get: P(A AND White) = P(A) * P(White) P(A) was found in i) as 1/3 Find P(White): P(White) = Number of white marbles / Total Marbles P(White) = 1/3 [B][/B] Therefore, we have: P(A AND White) = 1/3 * 1/3 P(A AND White) = [B]1/9[/B] --------------------------------- iv) spinning C and picking a pink marble?
