Scenario: You mix 6 red skittles and 11 blue skittles in a bowl. As an experiment you pull out 3 skittles, one at a time (not replacing them) and record the colors. 1 One result you might get is 'RRR' which (hint) has P(RRR) = . It will help to write out a probability table 34 for this experiment -- do so on paper so you can use it to answer these questions. a. What is the for this experiment? b. What is the probability you get at least 1 blue skittle? (hint use complement!) c. What is P(BRB)? Let E be the event that there's exactly one red skittle among the first two you draw out. d. What is E? e. What is P(E)?| f. Why is P(E) + E -? Because outcomes in are not equally likely. They are the same. Because E is not a probability.
