    In a robotics lab there are nine identical data-sticks, each labelled with a single code letter:


    <p>The diagram shows nine identical circles (nodes), each containing a single letter. They are laid out in two staggered rows:</p>
<p>• Top row (left to right): A, A, A, I   (and, set slightly apart to the right, X)<br>
• Bottom row (left to right): O, R, T, T</p>
<p>Altogether the multiset of labels is {A, A, A, I, O, R, T, T, X}. There are no lines or arrows—just the nine labeled circles.</p>

    A technician randomly selects two sticks, without replacement.

    1. Find the probability that the first stick selected is labelled

      1. A,

        [1]
      2. A or I.

        [1]
    2. Determine the probability that the second stick selected is labelled A, given that the first stick selected was labelled I.

      [2]
    3. Find the probability that both sticks selected are labelled A.

    A deck of ten special game cards contains the numbers

    {2,2,3,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}

    Two cards are drawn one after the other without replacement.

    1. Write down

      1. the probability that the first card drawn shows the number 2.

        [1]
      2. the probability that the first card drawn shows 2 or 3.

        [1]
    2. Find the probability that the second card drawn shows 2, given that the first card drawn showed 3.

      [2]
    3. Find the probability that the sum of the two cards is 10.

    1. Write down the median mark.

      [1]
    2. How many students scored 24 marks or less?

      [1]
    3. How many students scored more than 29 marks?

      [1]

    A passing score is 27 marks.

    1. Determine the probability that a student scored above 29 marks given that they passed the exam.
