\n" ); document.write( "answer: \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "a. \"true\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The sum of the probabilities of complementary events is \"1\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "P(A) + P(A') = \"1\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "answer is: a. \"50\"%
\n" ); document.write( "if \"10\" red,the probability a person chosen has a favorite color of red is \"10%2F30=1%2F3=0.33333333333333333333333333333333\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "and if \"5\" blue, the probability a person chosen has a favorite color of blue is \"5%2F30=1%2F6=0.16666666666666666666666666666667\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so, the probability a person chosen has a favorite color of red and blue is \"0.50\" or \"50\"%\r
