Independent and Mutually Exclusive Events · Try It 10
A box has two balls, one white and one red. We select one ball, put it back in the box, and select a second ball (sampling with replacement). Let T be the event of getting the white ball twice, F the event of picking the white ball first, S the event of picking the white ball in the second drawing.
(a) Compute P(T).
(b) Compute P(T|F).
(c) Are T and F independent?.
(d) Are F and S mutually exclusive?
(e) Are F and S independent?
