10 Dylan opens a box of a dozen chocolate cremes and offers three of them to Russell. Russell likes vanilla cremes the best, but all the chocolates look alike on the outside. If five of the twelve cremes are vanilla, what is the probability that all of Russell’s picks are vanilla?

11 Suppose an event A has probability p 1 and an event B has probability p 2 under the assumption that A occurs. Then the probability that both A and B occur is p 1 p 2.

15 Suppose Tommy makes 92% of his free throws. If he shoots 15 free throws, and if his chance of making each one is independent of the other shots, what is the probability that he makes all 15?

16 Suppose Tommy makes 92% of his free throws. If he shoots 15 free throws, and if his chance of making each one is independent of the other shots, what is the probability that he makes exactly 10?
