Question Number 136417 by I want to learn more last updated on 21/Mar/21

Answered by EDWIN88 last updated on 22/Mar/21

even number = {2,4} , odd number={1,3,5}  the sum of the number on two balls  have probabability = ((1+3)/C_2 ^5 ) = (2/5)

$$\mathrm{even}\:\mathrm{number}\:=\:\left\{\mathrm{2},\mathrm{4}\right\}\:,\:\mathrm{odd}\:\mathrm{number}=\left\{\mathrm{1},\mathrm{3},\mathrm{5}\right\} \\ $$$$\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{sum}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{number}\:\mathrm{on}\:\mathrm{two}\:\mathrm{balls} \\ $$$$\mathrm{have}\:\mathrm{probabability}\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{2}} ^{\mathrm{5}} }\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{5}} \\ $$

The sum will be even if and only if   both numbers are even or both are odd.  S^ ample Space, S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}  Odd numbers, D = {1, 3, 5}  E_ ven numbers, E = {2, 4}    (a) P(sum is even) = ((C_2 +^2 C_2 )/(C_2 ))                                             =  (2/5)    (b) Even Sum, V = {4, 6, 8}           E∩V = {4}  ⇒    P(E/V) =  ((n(E∩V))/(n(V)))          P(E/V) =  (1/3)
