A fair die is rolled twice. Let A denote the event that the sum of the outcomes is odd, and let B denote the event that it lands on "2" on the first toss. Calculate P(A) and P(A|B). Are A and B independent?

A pair of dice is tossed. Let E be the event that the sum is 6. Let A be the event that a 2 appears on at least one die. List the elements in each event. Are the events independent, dependent, or mutually exclusive? a) P(E) b)P(A) c)P(A/E) d) P(E/A)

Roll two fair dice. Each die has six faces. a. List the sample space. b. Let A be the event that either a three or four is rolled first, followed by an even number. Find P(A). c. Let B be the event that the sum of the two rolls is at most seven. Find P(B). d. In words, explain what “P(A|B)” represents. Find P(A|B). e. Are A and B mutually exclusive events?
