Two tickets are drawn from a box with 5 tickets numbered as follows: 1,1,3,3,5.
If the tickets are drawn with replacement, find the probability that the first ticket is a 1 and the second ticket is a 5.
P(condition) = (2/5)(1/5) = 2/25
----------------------
If the tickets are drawn without replacement, find the probability that the first ticket is a 1 and the second ticket is a 3.
P(condition) = (2/5)(2/4) = 4/20 = 1/5
----------------------
If the tickets are drawn without replacement, find the probability that the first ticket is a 1 and the second ticket is a 1.
P(condition) = (2/5)(1/4) = 2/20 = 1/10
