1.1 Basic Concepts


1.1-2 (a) O = {HHHH, HHHT, HHTH, HTHH, THHH, HHTT, HTTH, TTHH,
HTHT, THTH, THHT, HTTT, THTT, TTHT, TTTH, TTTT};
(b) (i) 5/16, (ii) 0, (iii) 11/16, (iv) 4/16, (v) 4/16, (vi) 9/16, (vii) 4/16.

1.1-4 (a) P (A ∪ B) = 0.4 + 0.5 − 0.3 = 0.6;


(b) A = (A ∩ B 0 ) ∪ (A ∩ B)
P (A) = P (A ∩ B 0 ) + P (A ∩ B)
0.4 = P (A ∩ B 0 ) + 0.3
P (A ∩ B) = 0.1;
(c) P (A0 ∪ B 0 ) = P [(A ∩ B)0 ] = 1 − P (A ∩ B) = 1 − 0.3 = 0.7.

1.1-6 (a) P (A ∪ B) = P (A) + P (B) − P (A ∩ B)


0.7 = 0.4 + 0.5 − P (A ∩ B)
P (A ∩ B) = 0.2;
(b) P (A0 ∪ B 0 ) = P [(A ∩ B)0 ] = 1 − P (A ∩ B)
= 1 − 0.2
= 0.8.

1.1-8 (a) O = {(1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (2, 3), (2, 4), (2, 5), (3, 4), (3, 5), (4, 5)};
(b) (i) 1/10; (ii) 5/10.

1.1-12 A∪B∪C = A ∪ (B ∪ C)
P (A ∪ B ∪ C) = P (A) + P (B ∪ C) − P [A ∩ (B ∪ C)]
= P (A) + P (B) + P (C) − P (B ∩ C) − P [(A ∩ B) ∪ (A ∩ C)]

1.2 Methods of Enumeration


1.2-2 (4)(3)(2) = 24.
1.2-4 (a) (4)(5)(2) = 40; (b) (2)(2)(2) = 8.
1.2-6 O ={ FFF, FFRF, FRFF, RFFF, FFRRF, FRFRF, RFFRF, FRRFF,
RFRFF, RRFFF, RRR, RRFR, RFRR, FRRR, RRFFR, RFRFR,
FRRFR, RFFRR, FRFRR, FFRRR } so there are 20 possibilities.
