QUESTION 2 [10 marks] Three men and four women are available to tackle a specific task which requires two people. If two people are chosen at random for the task: (i) Draw a tree diagram that models this experiment showing the outcomes and their associated probabilities. Use M to represent ' a man was chosen' and W to represent 'a woman was chosen'. (ii) Find the probability that there will be no men. (iii) Find the probability that there will be one man.
