______________11. An MP3 player is set to play songs at random from the fifteen songs it contains in memory. Any
song can be played at any time, even if it is repeated. There are 5 songs by Band A, 3 songs by Band

______________15. In a group of 40 people, 10 are healthy and every person the of the remaining 30 has either
high blood pressure, a high level of cholesterol or both. If 15 have high blood pressure and 25
have high level of cholesterol,
a) how many people have high blood pressure and a high level of cholesterol?

If a person is selected randomly from this group, what is the probability that he/she
b) has high blood pressure (event A)?
c) has high level of cholesterol(event B)?
d) has high blood pressure and high level of cholesterol (event A and B)?
e) has either high blood pressure or high level of cholesterol (event A or B)?
f) Use the above to check the probability formula: P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B).
______________17. In a certain country last year a total of 500 million tons of trash was recycled. The chart below
shows the distribution, in millions of tons, for the different types of trashes.

a) How many tons of Iron/Steel was recycled?

b) What percent of the recycled trash was glass?

Different Kinds of Graphs

Bar graphs to show numbers that are independent of each other. Example data might include things like the number of people
who preferred each of Chinese takeaways, Indian takeaways and fish and chips.

Pie charts to show you how a whole is divided into different parts. You might, for example, want to show how a budget had
been spent on different items in a particular year.

Line graphs show you how numbers have changed over time. They are used when you have data that are connected, and to
show trends, for example, average night-time temperature in each month of the year.
Cartesian graphs have numbers on both axes, which therefore allow you to show how changes in one thing affect another.
These are widely used in mathematics, and particularly in algebra.

And vs. Or Probability

In probability, there's a very important distinction between the words and and or.

 And means that the outcome has to satisfy both conditions at the same time.
 Or means that the outcome has to satisfy one condition, or the other condition, or both at the same time.

AND Probability

What is the probability of drawing a card from a deck and it being red and a face card?
For this probability, we need to look at which cards are both red and face cards. There are 6 of these:
Jack of Hearts, Queen of Hearts, King of Hearts, Jack of Diamonds, Queen of Diamonds, and King of
Diamonds.

OR Probability

What is the probability of drawing a card from a deck and it being red or a face card?
This time the card can be red, or a face card, or both at the same time. There are 26 red cards (6 of
which are also face cards). In addition, there are 6 more face cards that are not red: Jack of Clubs,
Queen of Clubs, King of Clubs, Jack of Spades, Queen of Spades, and King of Spades. That is a total of
26 + 6 = 32 cards.

Be careful not to just add up the number of face cards (12) with the number of red cards (26). That would
give a total of 38 cards, but it would count the red face cards twice.
