Question

UpStudy AI · Accepted Answer

Let's solve the problems step by step, extracting the known conditions and calculating the probabilities where necessary.

### Problem 8: Probability of drawing a spade or a nine
A standard deck has 52 cards, with 13 spades and 4 nines (one of which is a spade).

1. **Total spades**: 13
2. **Total nines**: 4
3. **Spade that is also a nine**: 1

Using the formula for the probability of either event occurring:
$$
P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)
$$
Where:
- $$ P(A) = \frac{13}{52} $$ (probability of drawing a spade)
- $$ P(B) = \frac{4}{52} $$ (probability of drawing a nine)
- $$ P(A \cap B) = \frac{1}{52} $$ (probability of drawing the nine of spades)

Calculating:
$$
P(A \cup B) = \frac{13}{52} + \frac{4}{52} - \frac{1}{52} = \frac{16}{52} = \frac{4}{13}
$$

**Answer**: D. $$ \frac{4}{13} $$

### Problem 9: Mutually exclusive events
Mutually exclusive events cannot occur at the same time.

- A. Odd number or a 3: Not mutually exclusive (3 is odd).
- B. Even number or a multiple of 3: Not mutually exclusive (6 is both).
- C. Odd number or a 6: Not mutually exclusive (6 is even).
- D. Even number or a 6: Not mutually exclusive (6 is even).

**Answer**: None of the options illustrate mutually exclusive events.

### Problem 10: Nonmutually exclusive events
Nonmutually exclusive events can occur at the same time.

- A. Even number or greater than 4: Nonmutually exclusive (6 is both).
- B. Even number or less than 2: Nonmutually exclusive (0 is both).
- C. Odd number or greater than 5: Nonmutually exclusive (7 is both).
- D. Odd number or divisible by 2: Mutually exclusive (no number can be both).

**Answer**: A. Rolling an even number or greater than 4.

### Problem 11: Probability of drawing a red ace or a heart jack
There are 2 red aces and 1 heart jack in a deck.

1. **Total red aces**: 2
2. **Total heart jacks**: 1

Using the formula:
$$
P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)
$$
Where $$ P(A \cap B) = 0 $$ (no overlap).

Calculating:
$$
P(A \cup B) = \frac{2}{52} + \frac{1}{52} = \frac{3}{52}
$$

**Answer**: B. $$ \frac{3}{52} $$

### Problem 12: Probability that neither A nor C wins
The probabilities are:
- $$ P(A) = \frac{1}{3} $$
- $$ P(B) = \frac{1}{6} $$
- $$ P(C) = \frac{1}{3} $$

The probability that neither A nor C wins is:
$$
P(B) = 1 - P(A) - P(C) = 1 - \left(\frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{3}\right) = 1 - \frac{2}{3} = \frac{1}{3}
$$

**Answer**: B. $$ \frac{1}{3} $$

### Problem 13: Probability of picking a student wearing uniform or a woman
Total students = 20 (12 girls, 8 boys). 
- Girls in uniform: 6
- Boys in uniform: 5

Using the formula:
$$
P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)
$$
Where:
- $$ P(A) = \frac{12}{20} $$ (girls)
- $$ P(B) = \frac{11}{20} $$ (wearing uniform: 6 girls + 5 boys)
- $$ P(A \cap B) = \frac{6}{20} $$ (girls in uniform)

Calculating:
$$
P(A \cup B) = \frac{12}{20} + \frac{11}{20} - \frac{6}{20} = \frac{17}{20}
$$

**Answer**: A. $$ \frac{17}{20} $$

### Problem 14: Probability of rolling an even number or a number greater than three
Even numbers: 2, 4, 6 (3 outcomes).
Numbers greater than 3: 4, 5, 6 (3 outcomes).
Overlap (even numbers greater than 3): 4, 6 (2 outcomes).

Using the formula:
$$
P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)
$$
Calculating:
$$
P(A \cup B) = \frac{3}{6} + \frac{3}{6} - \frac{2}{6} = \frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{3}
$$

**Answer**: C. $$ \frac{2}{3} $$

### Problem 15: Type of event when selecting pens
Since Jissa returns the pen before selecting the second one, the events are independent.

**Answer**: B. Independent

### Problem 16: Probability that the first pen is blue and the second is black
Total pens = 3 + 8 + 9 = 20.

1. Probability of blue first: $$ \frac{8}{20} $$
2. Probability of black second: $$ \frac{9}{20} $$

Calculating:
$$
P(\text{blue first and black second}) = \frac{8}{20} \times \frac{9}{20} = \frac{72}{400} = \frac{9}{50}
$$

**Answer**: A. $$ \frac{9}{50} $$

### Problem 17: Probability of drawing 2 red marbles and 1 white marble without replacement
Total marbles = 9 red + 8 white = 17.

1. Probability of first red: $$ \frac{9}{17} $$
2. Probability of second red: $$ \frac{8}{16} $$
3. Probability of third white: $$ \frac{8}{15} $$

Calculating:
\[
P(\text{2 red, 1 white}) = \frac{9}{17} \times \frac{8}{16} \times \frac{8}{15} = \frac{576}{4080} = \frac{
**Simplified Answers:** 8. **Probability of drawing a spade or a nine:** D. $$ \frac{4}{13} $$ 9. **Mutually exclusive event:** None of the options illustrate mutually exclusive events. 10. **Nonmutually exclusive event:** A. Rolling an even number or greater than 4. 11. **Probability of drawing a red ace or a heart jack:** B. $$ \frac{3}{52} $$ 12. **Probability that neither A nor C wins:** B. $$ \frac{1}{3} $$ 13. **Probability of picking a student wearing uniform or a woman:** A. $$ \frac{17}{20} $$ 14. **Probability of rolling an even number or a number greater than three:** C. $$ \frac{2}{3} $$ 15. **Type of event when selecting pens:** B. Independent 16. **Probability that the first pen is blue and the second is black:** A. $$ \frac{9}{50} $$ 17. **Probability of drawing 2 red marbles and 1 white marble without replacement:** D. $$ \frac{23}{170} $$ 18. **Probability of drawing 3 marbles in succession without replacement:** D. $$ \frac{23}{170} $$ 19. **Type of event when selecting noodles:** C. Dependent 20. **Probability that the buyer buys a pack of chicken, beef, and pork flavors:** D. $$ \frac{120}{287} $$
