What is the probability that the first card drawn is a Diamond and the second card drawn is not a Diamond? a) b) c) d) e) Question 7 Suppose we have two urns, Urn 1 and Urn 2. Urn 1 contains 3 red marbles and 5 white marbles. Urn 2 contains 9 red marbles and 11 white marbles. The experiment consists of first choosing an urn with equally likely probability, and then drawing a marble from that urn.

In this chapter, we use sample data to make conclusions about the population. Many of these conclusions are based on probabilities of the events.
