Summer ’03 Finite Math; Quiz 8 section 51
0. Print your name:
1. The Little Blue computer company orders 70% of their LCD panels from Taiwan and
the remaining from Korea. Ten percent of the LCD panels from Taiwan are defective while
twenty percent of those from Korea are defective. Find the probability that a Little Blue
computer has a defective LCD panel.
2. You draw two cards from a deck of cards and win five dollars if you get two hearts,
break even if you get one heart and lose two dollars if you get no hearts. Fine the expected
value of the game to you.
3. A coin is flipped three times. Are the events “the second flip is heads” and “at least
two flips are heads” independent or dependent ?
