ANSWER

[tex]\begin{gathered} 1)\frac{1}{11} \\ 2)\frac{4}{11} \\ 4)\frac{10}{11} \\ 5)\frac{7}{11} \end{gathered}[/tex]

EXPLANATION

From the given question;

MISSISSIPPI has 11 words

The number of M is 1

The number of S is 4

Hence;

1.

[tex]P(M)=\frac{1}{11}[/tex]

2. P(S);

[tex]P(S)=\frac{4}{11}[/tex]

4. P(not M) ;

[tex]\begin{gathered} 1-P(M) \\ =1-\frac{1}{11} \\ =\frac{10}{11} \end{gathered}[/tex]

5. P(not S);

[tex]\begin{gathered} P(not\text{ S})=1-P(S) \\ =1-\frac{4}{11} \\ =\frac{7}{11} \end{gathered}[/tex]
