Using the tree diagram, you just constructed and make a table showing the probability distribution of getting zero, one, or both questions right by guessing. (i attached the tree diagram)
@welshfella @kropot72
I got: Probability of getting zero questions right by guessing: .5626(.75)= .42195 Probability of getting one question right by guessing: (0.75)(.1875)= .140625 (0.25)(.0625)= 0.015625 .140625+0.015625= .15625 but I'm not sure if i did it correctly, can someone check my answer please?
don't multiply
the number on the right most nodes are the total probabilities already
oh ok so the probability of getting zero right is .5625, getting one right is .25+.1875=.4375 and getting both right would be .1875?

yes the probability of getting zero right is .5625,
the probability of getting 1 right is the sum of the two probability of the nodes in the tree that are exactly 1 right ansewer
yea i got .25+.1875=.4375
ie P(1) = P(wr) + P(rw)
0.25 is the probability that the first question is right, but we want to add the probabilities that exactly one question is right
oh sorry so its .1875+.0625= .25
nope
