You have some number of coins in your pocket, and you choose two at random. The random variable ZZ assigns the value of the coins in cents to each outcome. What value is assigned when you draw out a quarter and a dime? A coin is flipped three times. YY is a random variable that assigns 3 times the number of heads flipped minus 2 times the number of tails flipped. What number is assigned to HHT? A person picks a number between 1 and 272820. The random variable ZZ assigns the 0 to an even number and 1 to an odd number. What number is assigned to 270221?arrow_forward
- Two dice, one green and one yellow, are rolled. Find the conditional probability. The sum is 12, given that the green one is either 2 or 3 and the yellow one is 1. Say whether the indicated pair of events is independent. The events are dependent.The events are independent.arrow_forwardFor Parts A, B, and C, use the experiment below. Show all work. Two fair six-sided dice are rolled. Part A: How many outcomes are in the sample space of the experiment? Part B: What is the probability the sum of the two dice will be greater than or equal to 10? Part C: Laura and Bethany want to decide who fills the car with gasoline for their upcoming trip. Laura will fill the car if the sum of the dice is greater than or equal to 10, and Bethany will fill the car if the sum of the dice is less than 5 If the sum of the dice is any other value, the result is discarded. Does this method provide a fair way to decide who fills the car with gasoline? Provide a supporting explanation.arrow_forwardIndependent or Dependent In each question below, you are given two events.
