Question

Kim rolls a dice and flips a coin

a) calculate the probability that she gets a 2 and a head

b) workout the probablity that she gets an even number and a tail

Answer 1

Since, both the events are independent.

So, P(A+B) = P(A)×P(B)

a) P( Head & Getting a 2 ) = P( head ) × P( Getting a 2 )

`=(1)/(2)* (1)/(6)\\\\=(1)/(12)`

b) P( Even number & Tail ) = P( Even number ) × P( Tail )

`=(3)/(6)* (1)/(2)\\\\= (1)/(4)`

Hence, this is the required solution.
