Find the conditional probability of the given event when two fair dice (one red and one green) are rolled. The red one is 1, given that the green one is 1. Step 1 Begin by considering the sample spaces and the probabilities of the outcomes. Recall that for the experiment of rolling two dice (the first one red and the second one green) and observing the face-up number on each die, the sample space S is the following 36-element set. 36 S = Recall also that since both dice are fair, the outcomes are equally likely; that is, the probability of any one outcome is the same as that of any other. Because probabilities are never negative and the sum of the probabilities of all outcomes in a sample space must be 1, the probability of any one of the 36 equally likely outcomes is 1 (1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (1, 6), (2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (2, 4), (2, 5), (2, 6), (3, 4), (3, 5), (3, 6), (3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3), (4, 1), (4, 2), (4, 3), (4, 4), (4, 5), (4, 6), (5, 1), (5,2), (5, 3), (5,…
Naive Approach 1: Say A, B, C are independent ifP (A ∩B ∩C) = P (A)P (B)P (C).Suppose two six-sided dice are tossed and the outcome is noted. Let S denotethe sample space of this experiment.i. Write down the set S explicitly. Consider the eventsA = {(i, i) : i = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, B = {(x, y) : 7 ≤x + y ≤10},C = {(x, y) : x + y is 2 or 7 or 8}.Write down the sets A, B, and C explicitly and calculate P (A), P (B), andP (C).
Flip two fair coins. Then the sample space is {HH, HT, TH, TT} where T = tails and H = heads. The outcomes HT and TH are different and the HT means that the first coin showed heads and the second coin showed tails. The TH means that the first coin showed tails and the second coin showed heads. Let A = the event of getting at least one tail while letting B = the event of getting all tails. What is the probability of event A ∩ B? a. 0.66 b. 0.50 c. 0.25 d. 0.75
