WIR Math 166-copyright Joe Kahlig, 10a Page 1Sample Problems For Exam 1Spring 2010 Compiled by Joe KahligThis collection of questions is intended to give an idea of different types of question that might be asked on theexam. This is not intended to represent an exam.These question cover chapter L and chapter 1 in the Applied Finite Mathematics, 2thedition by Tomastik andEpstein.Video solutions can be found at this link:http://www.math.tamu.edu/∼kahlig/166WIRpage.html1. Give the truth table for (∼ p ∧ q) ∨∼ q2. The statements p, s, and r have truth values of True and the statements q has a truth value of False.Determine the truth value of the compound statement.∼ (p∨s) ∧ (q ∨ r)3. Use the statements for the following.d: John has a dog as a petc: John has a cat as a petf: John has a fish as a pet(a) i. ∼ d∧ ∼ cii. (d ∨ c)∧ ∼ f(b) i. John had a dog or he did not have a cat as a pet.ii. John has a cat and a fi sh but does not have a d og as a pet.4. True or False.

A = {a, b, c}(a) List all subsets of A.(b) List all of the proper subsets of A.(c) Give an example of two subsets of A that are disjoint. If this is not possib le, then explain why.6. Shade the part of the Venn diagram that is represented by(a) (AC∪ B) ∩ (C ∪ A)(b) (B ∪ C) ∩ AC7. Write down the set notation that would represent the shaded portion of the Venn diagram.BCABCAWIR Math 166-copyright Joe Kahlig, 10a Page 28. U = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}, A = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9}, B = {1, 2, 4, 7, 8}, and C = {2, 4, 6, 8}. Compute thefollowing.a) (A ∩ B) ∪ C b) A ∩ (B ∪ C)C9. In a survey of 300 high scho ol seniors:120 had not read Macbeth but had read As You Like It or Romeo and Juliet.61 had read As You Like It but not Romeo and Juliet.15 had read Macbeth and As You Like It.14 had read As You Like It and Romeo and Juliet.9 had read Macbeth and Romeo and Juliet.5 had read Macbeth and Romeo and Juliet but not As You Like It.40 had read only Macbeth.Let M = Macbeth, R = Romeo and Juliet, and A = As You Like It.(a) Fill in a Venn diagram illustrating th e above information.(b) How many students read exactly one of these books?(c) How many students did not read Romeo and Juliet ?(d) How many students read Macbeth or As You Like It and read Romeo and Juliet ?(e) Compute n(M ∪ (RC∩ A)) =10. Find n(A ∩ B) if n(A) = 8, n(B) = 9, and n(A ∪ B) = 14.11. An experiment consists of tossing a 4 sided die and flipping a coin.(a) Describe an appropriate sample space for this experiment.(b) Are the events, E: getting a head and F: rolling a 2 on the die, mutually exclusive? Justify your answer.(c) Give two events of this sample space that are mutually exclusive.12. Roll a 6 sided die and an 8 sided die. What is the probability that(a) A sum of 8 and at least one of the die was a 6.(b) A sum of 8 or at least one of the die was a 6.(c) A sum of 8 is rolled if the six sided die has an even number on it.(d) A sum of 12 is rolled provided a six is cast (at least one six is rolled).13. If S = {a, b, c, d} with 2P (a) = P (b) = 3P (c) and P (d) = 0.2, find P (a).14. Let E and F be two events an d P (E) = 0.35, P (F ) = 0.55, and P (E ∩ FC) = 0.15. Ans wer the followin gquestions.(a) Compute the probability of exactly one of these events occurring.(b) Are E and F mutually exclusive?(c) P (E ∪ F ) =(d) Are E and F independ ent?(e) P (F |E) =(f) P (EC|F ) =WIR Math 166-copyright Joe Kahlig, 10a Page 315.

Whatis th e probability that(a) All the radios selected are in working order?(b) exactly one of the selected radios is defective?19. A new test for a d isease will give a positive result 92% of the time when a person has the disease. The testwill give a false positive 12% of the time. The test is give to a person selected at random from a group ofsubjects where 56% of them are healthy. What is the probability that(a) the disease will not be detected if the person has the disease?(b) the person has the disease if the test comes back positive?(c) If the person takes the test twice, what is th e probability that the person has the disease if both testare positive.20.
