Question 1

The chart shows a certain city's population by age.  Assume that the selections are independent events.  If 11 residents of this city are selected at random, find the probability that the first 2 are 65 or older, the next 2 are 25-44 years old, the next 6 are 24 or younger, and the last is 45-64 years old.

City X's Population by Age
0-24 years old 33%
25-44 years old 22%
45-64 years old 21%
65 or older 24%

◦ 0.000013
◦ 0.000004
◦ 0.000001
◦ 0.000585

Question 2

Solve the problem that involves probabilities with events that are not mutually exclusive.

There are 38 chocolates in a box, all identically shaped. There are 15 filled with nuts, 10 with caramel, and 13 are solid chocolate. You randomly select one piece, eat it, and then select a second piece.  Find the probability of selecting 2 solid chocolates in a row.
