What changes after each selection in sampling without replacement?

The probability of selecting an item

In sampling without replacement, are the events independent or dependent?

Dependent

A jar has 3 mints and 4 toffees. What is the initial probability of selecting a mint?

37\frac{3}{7}

In a tree diagram for dependent events, what do you multiply?

Along the branches

For the jar (3 mints, 4 toffees), what is Pr(X=0)\Pr(X = 0) when selecting 2 lollies?

27\frac{2}{7}

For the jar example, what is Pr(X=1)\Pr(X = 1) for selecting exactly 1 mint in 2 draws?

47\frac{4}{7}

What must the sum of all probabilities in a probability distribution equal?

11

What is the name of the distribution for sampling without replacement from two types?

Hypergeometric distribution

Using combinations, Pr(X=2)\Pr(X = 2) for 2 mints from jar equals what?

(32)×(40)(72)\frac{\binom{3}{2} \times \binom{4}{0}}{\binom{7}{2}}

In the dolphin example, what is Pr(X=2)\Pr(X = 2) for exactly 2 tagged in a sample of 3?

1255\frac{12}{55}
