A friend of mine is giving a dinner party. His current wine supply includes 11 bottles of zinfandel, 9 of merlot, and 7 of cabernet (he only drinks red wine), all from different wineries. If 6 bottles are randomly selected, what is the probability that all of them are the same variety?

In a drawer, there are 11 pairs of socks, 6 of which are white. If you randomly select two pairs of socks, what is the probability that both are white? Express your answer as a reduced fraction.

Bonnie and Connie are twins with identical purses. Bonnie needs 35 cents to pay for a parking meter. Suppose that Bonnie's purse has 5 quarters, 3 dimes, and 2 nickels while Connie's purse has 2 quarters, 5 dimes, and 3 nickels in it. Not being able to tell the difference between the purses, Connie picks one at random and grabs two coins from it. What is the probability that Bonnie picked her own purse given that she drew out enough change to pay for her parking meter? (Note: Bonnie needs to put in at least 35 cents to pay her parking meter.)

Kay has an 80% probability of making a free-throw in basketball, and each free-throw is independent. Kay gets to take 2 free-throws and must make both to win the game. What is the probability that Kay's team will win the game? Two owners of a cattle ranch, Jo and Val, want to find the average weight for the ranch’s 200 cows. Instead of weighing all of the cows: Jo weighs 25 cows and gets an average weight of 1,350 pounds (stdev 50) Val weighs 100 cows and gets an average weight of 1,420 pounds (stdev 50)   What is Jo’s margin of error, rounded to the nearest whole number? (The formula is )
