28. Identifying a person's eye color (brown, blue, green, hazel, gray, other) and hair color (black, brown, blonde, red, other).

Identifying Simple Events In Exercises 33-36, determine the number of outcomes in the event. Then decide whether the event is a simple event or not. Explain your reasoning.

34. A spreadsheet is used to randomly generate a number from 1 to 4000. Event B is generating a number less than 500.

Finding Classical Probabilities In Exercises 41-46, a probability experiment consists of rolling a 12-sided die numbered 1 to 12. Find the probability of the event.

43. Event C: rolling a number greater than 4

Finding Classical Probabilities In Exercises 41-46, a probability experiment consists of rolling a 12-sided die numbered 1 to 12. Find the probability of the event.

46. Event F: rolling a number divisible by 5

Using a Tree Diagram In Exercises 67-70, a probability experiment consists of rolling a six-sided die and spinning the spinner shown at the left. The spinner is equally likely to land on each color. Use a tree diagram to find the probability of the event. Then explain whether the event can be considered unusual.

68. Event B: rolling an odd number and the spinner landing on green

Boy or Girl? In Exercises 71-74, a couple plans to have three children. Each child is equally likely to be a boy or a girl.

71. What is the probability that all three children are girls?

Using a Bar Graph to Find Probabilities In Exercises 75-78, use the bar graph at the left, which shows the highest level of education received by employees of a company. Find the probability that the highest level of education for an employee chosen at random is

77. a master's degree.

80. Unusual Events Can any of the events in Exercises 75-78 be considered unusual? Explain.

81. Genetics A Punnett square is a diagram that shows all possible gene combinations in a cross of parents whose genes are known. When two pink snapdragon flowers (RW) are crossed, there are four equally likely possible outcomes for the genetic makeup of the offspring: red (RR), pink (RW), pink (WR), and white (WW), as shown in the Punnett square at the left. When two pink snapdragons are crossed, what is the probability that the offspring will be (c) white?
