4 A. Draw a tree diagram that shows the given facts. B. Find the probability of picking a white ball. C. If a white ball is picked, what is the probability that it came from Jar A? Jar B. Jar A contains 1 red, 2 white, and 3 green balls. Jar B contains 4 red and 5 white balls. A die is rolled. If a “1” or a “6” comes up a ball is randomly picked from Jar A. Other wise, a ball is randomly picked from Jar B.

5 NNBW AR G RW A. Draw a tree diagram that shows the given facts. JAR

6 Find the probability of picking a white ball P(choosing 1 or 6 and picking white) + P(not choosing 1 or 6 and picking white)

7 Find the probability of picking a white ball

8 If a white ball is picked, what is the probability that it came from Jar A?

9 During a flu epidemic, 35% of a school’s students have the flu. Of those with the flu, 90% have high temperatures. However, a high temperature is possible for people without the flu. It was estimated that 12% had a high temperature that did NOT have the flu. Make a tree diagram NF NT FT T SICK

10 What percent of students have a high temperature? P(F and T) + P(NF and T) (0.35)(0.90) + (0.65)(0.12) =0.393

11 If a student has a high temperature, what is the probability that the student has the flu?

12 A high school basketball team leads at halftime in 60% of the games in a season. The team wins 80% of the time when they have the halftime lead, but only 10% of the time when they do not. What is the probability that the team wins a particular game during the season? The team won their game, what is the probability they were NOT leading at halftime? P(L and W) + P(NL and W) (0.60)(0.80) + (0.40)(0.10) =0.52
