Answer
Given that the events S and T are independent, we can use the formula for independent events: P(S and T)=P(S)×P(T)
We know that:
P(S and T)=61 P(S)=41
Substituting the known values into the formula:
61=41×P(T)
To find P(T), we rearrange the equation: P(T)=61÷41=61×14=64=32
Thus, P(T)=32

Answer
Using the formula for the probability of the union of two independent events: P(S or T)=P(S)+P(T)−P(S and T)
Substituting the known values:
P(S)=41,P(T)=32,P(S and T)=61
Thus:
P(S or T)=41+32−61
Finding a common denominator (which is 12): =123+128−122=129=43
Therefore, P(S or T)=43

Answer
To determine the number of different codes using the digits 2, 3, 5, 7, and 9 without repetition, we can use the permutation formula:
n(E)=n!
Where n is the number of available digits. Here, n = 5 (because we have five digits).
Thus, the number of codes is:
n(E)=5!=120

Answer
If repetition is allowed, each of the five positions can be filled by any of the 5 digits.
Thus, the total number of different codes is:
n(E)=55=3125

Answer
To compute the probability of the 2 Australian rooms being next to each other, consider the two Australians as a single unit or block.
Now, we have:
6 units in total (3 South Africans + 1 block of 2 Australians + 2 English)
The arrangements of these 6 units and the arrangement within the block:
n(E)=6!×2!
Total arrangements of all rooms without constraints:
n(S)=7!
Probability:
P(E)=n(S)n(E)=7!6!×2!=212
