Please answer number 8 2. Suppose that 5 percent of men and 0.25 percent of women are color-blind. Acolor-blind person is chosen at random. What is the probability of this person beingmale? Assume that there are an equal number of males and females.3. Two cards are randomly selected from a deck of 52 playing cards.a) What is the probability they constitute a pair (that is, that they are of the samedenomination)?b) What is the conditional probability they constitute a pair given that they are ofdifferent suits?4. Bill and George go target shooting together. Both shoot at a target at the same time.Suppose Bill hits the target with probability 0.7, whereas George, independently, hitsthe target with probability 0.4.a) Given that exactly one shot hit the target, what is the probability that it wasGeorge's shot?b) Given that the target is hit, what is the probability that George hit it?5. A fair coin is continually flipped. What is the probability that the first four flips areа) Н, Н, Н, Н?b) T, Н, Н, Н?c) What is the probability that the pattern T, H, H, H occurs before the patternН, Н, Н, Н?6. Urn 1 contains two white balls and one black ball, while urn 2 contains one white balland five black balls. One ball is drawn at random from urn 1 and placed in urn 2. Aball is then drawn from urn 2. It happens to be white. What is the probability that thetransferred ball was white?2/37. A gambler has in his pocket a fair coin and a two-headed coin. He selects one of thecoins at random, and when he flips it, it shows heads.a) What is the probability that it is the fair coin?b) Suppose that he flips the same coin a second time and again it shows heads.Now what is the probability that it is the fair coin?c) Suppose that he flips the same coin a third time and it shows tails. Now whatis the probability that it is the fair coin?8. Entomological engineers are continually searching for new biological agents tocontrol one of the world's worst aquatic weeds, the water hyacinth. An insect thatnaturally feeds on water hyacinth is the delphacid. Female delphacids lay anywherefrom one to four eggs onto a water hyacinth blade. The Annals of the EntomologicalSociety of America (Jan. 2005) published a study of the life cycle of a South Americandelphacid species. The accompanying table gives the percentages of water hyacinthblades that have one, two, three, and four delphacid eggs.One EggTwo EggThree EggFour EggPercentage ofBlades40544Source: Sosa, A.

Duringthe manufacturing process, the propellant can get mixed with another liquid toproduce a contaminated cartridge. A University of South Florida statistician, hired bythe company to investigate the level of contamination in the stored cartridges, foundthat 23% of the cartridges in a particular lot were contaminated.
