Practice Questions
Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
A bag contains 3 red, 2 blue, and 4 green balls. A ball is drawn, then replaced. The process is repeated twice. Construct a tree diagram to represent all possible outcomes and their probabilities.
[4 marks]2.
Calculate the probability that exactly two green balls are drawn in three draws, with replacement.
[3 marks]3.
A fair six-sided die is rolled three times. Use a tree diagram to find the probability that the first roll is even, the second roll is a 3, and the third roll is greater than 4.
[3 marks]4.
A machine produces three types of products: A, B, and C. The probabilities are 0.5, 0.3, and 0.2 respectively. Product A has two possible defects: minor and major. The probabilities of minor defect is 0.1, major defect is 0.05. Construct a tree diagram for this scenario and find the probability that a randomly selected product is either B or has a major defect.
[4 marks]5.
In a three-stage experiment, the probabilities at each stage are independent: P(A)=0.6, P(B)=0.5, P(C)=0.4. Construct the tree diagram and determine the probability that all three events occur.
[3 marks]6.
A student flips two coins and then rolls a die. Construct a tree diagram and find the probability that the student gets at least one head and rolls a 4 or 5.
[4 marks]7.
Identify and correct the mistake in the following probability calculation based on a tree diagram: 'Probability of drawing a red ball then a blue ball (without replacement) is 3/9 * 2/8 = 6/72 = 1/12'.
[2 marks]8.
Construct a tree diagram for drawing two cards from a deck without replacement, and find the probability that both are kings.
[3 marks]9.
A box contains 5 defective and 15 non-defective items. Two items are randomly selected without replacement. Use a tree diagram to determine the probability that both items are defective.
[3 marks]10.
A complex tree diagram shows three stages: first, choosing a color (Red, Blue, Green); second, selecting a shape (Circle, Square); third, selecting a size (Small, Large). If each choice is independent and has equal probability, what is the probability of selecting a Green, Square, Large combination?
