A game at the local annual Apple Festival has players reach into a covered tub to pull
out an apple. In the tub are 10 red apples, 3 green apples, and 1 yellow apple. Let R be
the event of drawing a red apple, G be the event of drawing a green apple, and Y be the
event of drawing a yellow apple. If a player draws a green apple, then the player has the
choice of taking a $2 prize or (leaving the green apple out) reaching back into the tub for
a chance to draw the yellow apple (which gives a prize of $20). There is no prize for
drawing a red apple.
First, find P(Rc). What does this mean regarding winning a prize on the first draw?
Then, if on the first draw Deion pulls out a green apple, then decides to make a second
draw instead of taking the $2 prize, what is the probability Deion will win at least $2?
The table describes the distribution of a random sample S of 200 individuals,
arranged by education level and income.
Let events be defined as follows:
A = the event the subject makes 0-25,000 dollars per year
B = the event the subject makes 25,000-50,000 dollars per year
C = the event the subject makes 50,000-75,000 dollars per year
D = the event the subject makes 75,000-100,000 dollars per year
E = the event the subject makes 100,000-125,000 dollars per year
F = the event the subject makes 125,000-150,000 dollars per year
G = the event the subject makes more than 150,000 dollars per year
H = the event the subject has not graduated high school
I = the event the subject has only graduated high school
J = the event the subject has some college (but not a Bachelor’s degree)
K = the event the subject’s highest level of education is a Bachelor’s degree
L = the event the subject’s highest level of education is a graduate degree
M = the event the subject has earned a post-graduate degree…
The Graduate Record Examination (GRE) is an exam taken by students who are attempting to get into
graduate schools. The exam has three sections, including a math section titled "Quantitative
Reasoning. The scores on this section of the exam follow an approximately normal distribution with a
mean of 150 and a standard deviation of 9.
a. Label the values for the mean, along with the values for 1, 2, and 3 standard deviations away from the
mean.
b. What percent of GRE test takers score between 141 and 168?
c. What proportion of GRE test takers score above 135?
d. In order to get into Harvard graduate school, a GRE test taker would need to be in the top 9% of all
test takers. What is the minimum score needed to achieve this?
