For these questions you will need to construct your own sample space diagrams. Look at the questions you have already done for guidance.
6. Darby and Joan each roll a fair 6-sided dice and the number it lands on is noted. Draw out the sample or possibility space. What is the probability that :- a). they both roll a 1, b). Joan scores exactly 4 more than Darby, c). their number differ by exactly 3, d). neither of them throw an even number, e). Darby's number is bigger than Joan's number, f). the sum of their numbers is 3 ?
7. Two unbiased dice are numbered 2, 2, 4, 4, 6, 6. They are thrown together and the total of the two scores is found. Draw a sample space. Find the probabilities that a). the sum is 10, b). the sum is an odd number, c). the sum is a square number, d). the sum is greater than 6.
8. A coin and an ordinary die are thrown. Draw the sample space. What is the probability a). of getting a head and a 4, b). a tail and a prime number, c). a head and a factor of 12, d). a tail and a number bigger than or equal to 4 ?
*9. There are 2 bags of marbles. The first contains 2 red, 3 blue and 1 green, the second contains 1 red, 2 blue and 1 green. A marble from each is removed, draw the sample space. Find the probability of getting a). 2 red, b). 2 blue, c). a red and blue, d). 2 green, e) a green and a blue
