Consider the traffic light at the intersection of 5th Avenue and Meyran Avenue. The probability of getting a green light on your way home at a given time (you always leave at the same time) is 0.35 and that of yellow light is 0.04. (a) What is the probability of getting either a green or a yellow light on a randomly chosen day? (b) What is the probability of finding a red light on both Monday and Tuesday? (c) What is the probability that you don’t encounter red light until Wednesday starting Monday? (d) What is the probability of getting a green light on Wednesday given you had a red light on Tuesday?
