Answer to Problem 30E

The value of probability P(not walleye, given trout and perch) when three fish are removed from an aquarium is 34 .

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

There are 6 fish in an aquarium namely a trout, a bass, a perch, a catfish, a walleye and a salmon and three fish at random are drawn.

Formula used:

Probability of an event Eis P(E)=number of outcometotal number of outcome .

Given an event Q , the conditional probability of event A is P(A|Q)=P(A and Q)P(Q) where P(Q)0 .

Calculation:

Consider the provided information thatthere are 6 fish in an aquarium namely a trout, a bass, a perch, a catfish, a walleye and a salmon and three fish at random are drawn.

The probability of P(not walleye, given trout and perch) .

Let A be an event that removed fish is not walleye and B be an event that removed fish is trout and perch.

Use combination to evaluate the probability, recall that if there are n objects taken r at a time then combination is defined as C(n,r)=n!r!(nr)! .

Recall that probability of an event Eis P(E)=number of outcometotal number of outcome .

Probability that removed fish is trout and perch,

  P(B)=C(1,1)C(1,1)C(4,1)C(6,3)=4!1!3!6!3!3!=420

Probability that removed fish is not walleye but can be trout and perch,

  P(A and B)=C(1,1)C(1,1)C(3,1)C(6,3)=3!1!2!6!3!3!=320

Recall that given an event Q , the conditional probability of event A is P(A|Q)=P(A and Q)P(Q) where P(Q)0 .

The probability of P(not walleye, given trout and perch) .

  P(A|B)=320420=34

Thus, the value of probability P(not walleye, given trout and perch) when three fish are removed from an aquarium is 34 .
