Fill in the Blank: Let E and F be events such that P(E ∩ F ) = .34, P(E|F ) = .53. Find P(F). 8. Fill in the Blank: Let E and F be events in a sample space S such that P(E ∪ F) = .64, P(F) = .34 and P(E) = .43. Find P(E|F ). 9. Fill in the Blank: A box contains 4 yellow balls, 5 red balls and 6 green balls. Two balls are drawn without replacement. What is the probability that one yellow and one green ball were drawn?
PLease Help...I'm desperate!!
P(E ∩ F ) = P(E|F ) x P(F)
9. (4)(6)/(15)(14)
ok so I got .114 for number 9
P(F)+P(E)-P(E ∪ F)= P(E ∩ F ) And then use the same formula in my first comment
9. 4/35
is this what the first one would look like .34=.53xP(F)
(4)(6)/(15)(14) = 24/210 = 4/35
yes you are right about the first one
then would i subtract .53 from both sides?
No, you have to divide by 53 on both sides
i'm getting .642
for question 9 : it will be |dw:1349531938277:dw|
