Questions 6 -8 use the following definitions for events:
A = A die is rolled and shows an even number
B = A die is rolled and shows a 4, 5, or 6
C= A die is rolled and shows a 1
D= A coin is flipped and shows Heads
State the following expressions in words and calculate the probabilities:
5. Р(AND)
6. Р(BJA)
With the same event definitions given above, state the following as a probability expression using
symbols such as P(B U C) and calculate the probability.
7. The probability that the number on a die is a four given that the roll was even.
8. Using only the events above, find the probability that the die is rolled and shows a 2 or 3.
