5. When Ume's hockey team uses a "rocket launch" breakout, she has a 55% likelihood of receiving a cross-ice pass while at full speed. When she receives such a pass the probability of getting her slapshot away is 1/3. Ume's slapshot scores 25% of the time. What is the probability of Ume scoring with her slapshot when her team tries a rocket launch? 6. Pierre has examinations coming up in data management and biology. He estimates that his odds in favour of passing the data management exam are 16:5 and his odds against passing the biology exam are 3:5. Assume these to be independent events. a) What is the probability that Pierre will pass both exams? b) What are the odds in favour of Pierre failing both exams? c) What factors could make these two events dependent?
