... two classes: those who are accident prone and those who are not. Their statistics show that an accident-prone person will have an accident at some time within a fixed 1-year period with probability .4, whereas this probability decrease to .2 for a non-accident-prone person. If we assume that 30 perc ...

... What is the probability the coin is - a 20-cent coin. - either a 20-cent coin or a 2-euro coin. (3) You throw a dice twice (the first dice is, say, red and the second one is yellow). What is the sample space here? What is the probability that the sum of the face values is equal to 7? To 6? To 5? To ...
