<PRE><B>Question 671480</B>
a pet store has seven puppies including 4 poodles, 2 terriers, and 1 retriever. If rebecka and aaron, in that order, each select one puppy at random, with replacement (they may both select the same one), 
------------------------------------------------------
find the probability that 
a) both select a poodle::: (4/7)^2
-----------------------------------------
b) rebecka selects a retriever and aaron selects a terrier
::: (1/7)(2/7) = 2/49
----------------------------------------- 
c) rebecka selects a terrier and aaron selects a retriever
::: (2/7)(1/7) = 2/48
----------------------------------------- 
d) both select a retriever::: (1/7)^2 = 1/49
