2. Two dice are rolled. Find the probabilities of the following, as reduced fractions, and justify. Use the formula sheet if needed for help.

a. Both dice are ≥4, given that the sum is ≥9. 

Basic Probability Principle
P(E) = n(s)
Product Rule
P(EnF) = P(E) · P(FE) = P(F) · P(E|F)
Union Rule
For sets: n(AUB) = n(A) + n(B) - n(ANB)
For probability: P(EUF) = P(E) + P(F) − P(E^F)
Complement Rule (Probability)
P(E') = 1 - P(E)
P(E) = 1 - P(E')
Complement Rule (Number of Outcomes)
n(E) = n(S) - n(E')
n(E') = n(S) — n(E)
Permutations
P(n, k)
Bayes' Theorem
P(F;).P(E|F;)
P(F;|E) = P(F1).P(E|F1) + P(F2)·P(E|F2) + ... + P(Fn)·P(E|Fn)
P(F).P(EF)
Special Case: P(F|E) = P(F).P(E|F)+P(F').P(E\F')
