For this problem, we are told that all students in a class wrote two essays, one in the middle and one at the end of the semester.
00:08
After the first essay, the students were instructed on how to avoid plagiarism in the second essay.
00:13
We're told that of six esl students, three admitted to plagiarizing on the first essay, and only one esl student admitted to plagiarizing on the second essay.
00:23
In part a, we are asked, if one of the six esl students is randomly selected, what is the probability that he or she plagiarized on the second essay? the first essay.
00:32
So the probability, well, we know that it was three in six, that means that the probability be equal to three over six, or one over two, or zero point five, or 50%.
00:46
So there's a 50 % chance that a randomly selected esl student cheated on the first essay.
00:53
We're then told, in part b, to consider the results, plagiarism or not, for the six esl students on the second essay.
01:01
We're asked to list the possible outcomes.
01:05
For instance, students one and three plagiarized, the others do not, etc.
01:09
Okay, so this is going to be a little bit tedious to write out, but these are the, this is the list of all of the possible outcomes where the number shown is indicating, you know, for instance, that first result there is no students plagiarized and then one is student one plagiarized...
