MAT 142 NAME: PSU6D: Probability from Counting Principles Suppose there is a bowl of 20 Hershey's Miniatures on the table containing 6 Mr. Goodbars (G), 4 Krackels (K), and 10 Hershey chocolates (H). This time you are going to grab 5 Miniatures, without replacement. (Who'd want to replace them? We'd still eat 'em). For this problem, drawing a tree is painful (5 levels!) but could be done. Instead, use combinations to determine the following probabilities, showing your setup for the ratios and your final results. Make sure your thinking is clear (label what your numbers represent) a. P(all 5 candies are H) b. P(2 are K and 3 are H) c. P(4 are G and 1 is K) d. P(none of them are G)
