For this problem, we are told that a company is to hire two new employees.
00:04
They have prepared a final list of eight candidates, all of whom are equally qualified.
00:09
We're told that of these eight candidates, five are women.
00:12
We're asked if the company decides to select two persons randomly from these eight candidates.
00:16
We are asked, what is the probability that both of them are women? and we're to draw a tree diagram for this problem.
00:23
So, first of all, i'll say that the, or i'll note that the probability of selecting one woman, or selecting one woman on your first selection would be equal to five in eight.
00:36
So actually, i just realized that this is going to be a little bit on the complicated side.
00:43
So the catch here is that each test is not independent.
00:49
So at our first branch, we would have a five in eight chance.
00:57
So you have woman or not woman...
