Question

A cooler contains fourteen bottles of sports drink: five lemon-lime flavored, four orange-flavored, and five fruit-punch flavored. You randomly grab a bottle for your coach, a bottle for your friend, and a bottle for yourself. Your coach and your friend get orange. You get a fruit punch.

Answer 1

Dependent events since sampling without replacement.

1st orange = 4/14

2nd orange = 3/13

1st fruit punch = 5/12

probability = 4/14 * 3/13 * 5/12
