Section A · multiple choice

  1. 1.

    How many outcomes are in the sample space when a coin is tossed 4 times?

    1. 8
    2. 32
    3. 22
    4. 16
    Answer

    (d) 16

  2. 2.

    If P(A) = 19/40, P(B) = 11/20 and P(A ∩ B) = 1/4, then P(A ∪ B) is:

    1. 31/40
    2. 41/40
    3. 51/40
    4. 209/800
    Answer

    (a) 31/40

    P(A) + P(B) − P(A ∩ B)

  3. 3.

    If P(A) = 1/9, then P(not A) is:

    1. 1/18
    2. 1/8
    3. 4/9
    4. 8/9
    Answer

    (d) 8/9

    1 − P(A)

Section B · short answer

  1. 4.

    A coin is tossed three times. Write the sample space. What is the probability of more tails than heads?

    Answer

    S = {HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT, THT, TTH, TTT}; 1/2

  2. 5.

    If P(A) = 3/10, P(A ∩ B) = 1/10 and P(A ∪ B) = 17/30, find P(B).

    Answer

    11/30

    P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P(B) − P(A ∩ B)

Section C · long answer

  1. 6.

    A team of 3 is chosen at random from 8 boys and 7 girls. Find the probability that the team has (a) exactly one girl, (b) no girls, (c) at least one girl.
