Test 3 name:

MAT 126

2.3 Compute probabilities of mutually exclusive events, complementary events, and the union of events

1. A box contains four red marbles, seven white marbles, and five blue marbles. If one marble is drawn at random, find the probability for each of the following:

(a) A blue marble is drawn.


(b) A red or a blue marble is drawn.


(c) Neither a red nor a blue marble is drawn.

2.4 Use a tree diagram to compute probabilities

2. A box contains four red marbles, seven white marbles, and five blue marbles. If two marbles are drawn one at a time, find the probability that both marbles are white if the draws are made as follows:

(a) With replacement

(b) Without replacement

3. The probability of Ann passing her math test is 90%. The probability she passes her English test is 80%. The probability she passes her Chemistry test is 70%. What is the probability she passes all three tests?

2.8 Calculate conditional probabilities

4. A pair of dice are rolled. Calculate the following probabilities for the given events.

A = The sum is greater than 10

B = The first die shows a six

C = The first die shows a one

D = The sum of the numbers rolled is 7

a.  P(A|B)

b.  P(D)

c.  P(D|B)

d.  P(C|A)


2.7 Use odds in favor and odds against an event to solve probability problems

5. If the odds in favor of the Phillies winning their next game are 8 to 4, what is the probability that they will win?


3.3 Calculate angle measure in a triangle, in a regular polygon, and when parallel lines are cut by a transversal
