Question 1062473: A box contains four bolts. Two of them, labelled #1 and #2, are 5 mm diameter, and two of them labelled #3 and # 4, are 7 mm diameter. Bolts are randomly selected until a 5 mm bolt is obtained. The outcomes are the sequences of bolts that can be selected. So one outcome is 1 and another is 342.
i.List all the possible outcomes.
ii.Let A be the event that only one bolt is selected. List the outcomes in A..
iii.Let B be the event that three bolts are selected. List the outcomes in B.
iv.Let C be the event that bolt #2 is selected. List the outcomes in C.
v.Let D be the event that bolt #4 is not selected. List the outcomes in D.
vi.Let E be the event that bolt #1 is selected. Are A and E mutually exclusive? How about B and E, C and E and D and E?
