The probability of two independent events A, B (independent = events that do not depend on each other) is given by the product of the individual probabilities of A and B:

$p(AB)=p(A)\cdot p(B)$ (1)

In this problem, the single event is "getting a 3" when extracting a random number between 1 and 10.

The total number of possible outcomes is

n = 10

While the number of succesfull outcomes (getting a 3) is only one:

$s=1$

So, the probability of drawing a 3 in 1 draw is

$p(3)=\frac{s}{n}=\frac{1}{10}$

Then, we want to find the probability of getting three "3" in 3 consecutive generations. These events are independent events, so we can use rule (1) to find the total probability, and we get:

$p(333)=p(3)p(3)p(3)=(\frac{1}{10})(\frac{1}{10})(\frac{1}{10})=\frac{1}{1000}$

If the student is a domain/inout and the hair color is the range/output how is these two set of relation not a function?

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

A function is a relation that maps inputs from a set called the domain, into outputs from a set called the range.

Such that each input can be mapped into only one output.

So for example, if we have a relation that maps the input 2 into two different values:

f(2) = 4

f(2) = 8

Then this is not a function.

In the case of the problem, we have a student as the input, and the hair color as the output.

So we will have something like:

f(student) = blond

And if this student decides to change his/her hair color to red?

Then the function becomes:

f(student) = red

So for the same input, we had two different outputs, which means that this is not a function.

We also could have the case where a given student has two colors (Californian for example)

Where again, we would see two different outputs for one single input.
