A mini license plate for a toy car must consist of a letter followed by two numbers. Each letter must be a C, A or R. Each number must be a 3 or 7. Repetition of digits is permitted. Use the counting principle to determine the number of points in the sample space. Construct a tree diagram to represent this situation and submit it to the W5: Assignment 2 Dropbox List the sample space. Determine the exact probability of creating a mini license plate with a 7. Give solution exactly in reduced fraction form.
There are three choices for each letter, and 2 choices for each digit, with repetition permitted. The multiplication principle says that for a multipart event, you multiply together the number of choices for each part. What would you get then?
I did it like this
Each number must be a 5, 7 or 9. Each letter must be a "c", "a", or "n". Repetition of digits is not permitted. 1. use the counting principle to determine the number of points in the sample space? 1st number: 3 ways 2nd number: 2 ways letter: 3 ways Number of points in the sample space: 3*2*3 = 18 2. Construct a tree diagram to represent this situation? 57a/57c/57n 59a/59c/59n 75a/75c/75n 79a/79c/79n 95a/95c/95n 97a/97c/97n 3. List the sample space done 4 Determine the exact probability of creating a mini license plate with a given solution exactly in reduced fraction form. Each pattern has probability 1/18 = 0556
is it good
You seem to be solving a different problem (no repetition, and three available digits). The solution is good for the new problem.
