\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let \"A\" represent the event that the \"first\" student is \"female\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+P%28A%29+=+3%2F10+=+.30\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " What about the second student?
\n" ); document.write( "Let \"B+\"represent the event that the \"second\" student is \"female\". Because the same student in the first class can be picked again for the second class
\n" ); document.write( "P(B | A) = \"P%28B%29+=+3%2F10+=+.30\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "What is the probability that the \"two\"\"+students\" chosen are \"female\"?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Thus, we want to answer the question: what is P(A and B) ? \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "P(A and B) = \"P%28A%29%2AP%28B%29+=+%283%2F10%29%283%2F10%29+=+9%2F100+=+.09\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so,there is a \"9\"% chance that the replacement professor will choose \"two\" \"female\" students from his two classes\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "and your answer is: A. \"0.09\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
