Sephy pose la question :
Question 4: Two bags, 1 and 2, each contain equal size counters.
Bag 1 contains a pink counter, yellow counter and white counter. Bag 2 contains counters labelled 1, 4, 5 and 7.
A counter is drawn at random from bag 1 and a counter is drawn at random from bag 2.
If the counter from bag 1 is pink, the number on the counter from bag 2 is increased by 1
If the counter from bag 1 is yellow, the number on the counter from bag 2 is decreased by 5
If the counter from bag 1 is white, the number is halved.

Sandy pose la question :
Children’s meals are being prepared for a large gathering. There is an equal number of chicken, hamburger, and fish meals. Each meal comes with a toy: a ball, a parachute toy, or a Frisbee. There are twice as many balls as Frisbees and an equal number of parachutes and Frisbees.

Use a probability tree to show the sample space and determine the probability that a meal consists of chicken or fish and comes with a ball as a toy.

A thanksgiving day problem 2007-11-17
svetik pose la question :
On Thanksgiving Day, a group of nutty professors dressed up as "turkeys" and participated in a local fundraising event. The event consisted of three types of races: the sprint, the relay, and the hurdles. One more “turkey” takes part in the hurdles only than the sprint only. The same number take part in the sprint and the hurdles as take part in the relay and the hurdles. Eleven of the “turkeys” taking some part in these three races do not do the relay. Five “turkeys” take part in the sprint and the relay and three enter all three races. There are four teams of four “turkeys” in the relay. And, one more “turkey” is running in both the relay and the sprint than in the hurdles only.

“Turkey” Coe turned and said to “Turkey” Kim, “How many ‘turkeys’ were taking some part in any of the three races?” The nuttiest math professor, “Turkey” Young, said “There were ________ ‘turkeys’ taking part in any of the three races.” Fill in the blank!!!

Probability that a restaurant will succeed 2007-05-23
Cookie pose la question :
You wish to open a new restaurant and are considering locations in Toronto and Hamilton, but only one location will actually become available.

It is estimated that the chance of Hamilton being available is 60% and Toronto being available is 40%. Find the probability that the restaurant will :
a) survive its first year
b) be built in Toronto and survive its first year
c) be built in Hamilton, given that it survived its first year
d) not survive its first year, given that it is built in Toronto Thanks

Genealogy 2001-03-22
Brian pose la question :
In considering tracing genealogy the problem of a large and growing number of direct (grandparent) ancestors arose. Since the number of grandparents in any given generation doubles, for a person born in 2000 and assuming 25 year generations, in the year 1000 that person would have over one trillion direct ancestors in that year alone. Since estimates I have read place the total world population in 1000 at 250-300 million, the one trillion figure cannot be correct. I must be missing something in my calculations. Can you help provide the answer? While I am unlikely to be able to trace back to 1000, there is reason to believe 1250 is possible. Even in that year there would exist over one billion direct ancestors. That is certainly rather daunting and unlikely to be achieved if correct.
