Question:

At a certain university, 20% of all students are freshmen, 18% are sophomores, 21% are juniors, and 41% are seniors. As part of a promotion, the university bookstore is running a raffle for which all students are eligible. Ten students will be randomly selected to receive prizes (in the form of textbooks for the term).
a. What is the probability the winners consist of two freshmen, two sophomores, two juniors, and four seniors?
b. What is the probability the winners are split equally among under-classmen (freshmen and sophomores) and upperclassmen (juniors and seniors)?
c. The raffle resulted in no freshmen being selected. The freshman class president complained that something must be amiss for this to occur. Do you agree? Explain.

I have extensive hands-on experience and proficiency in assisting students in various subjects. During my tutoring sessions, I prioritize creating a supportive and engaging learning environment. I strive to understand each student's unique learning style and tailor my teaching methods accordingly. I am patient, empathetic, and skilled at breaking down complex concepts into simpler, more manageable parts. I encourage active participation and discussion, promoting critical thinking and problem-solving skills. One of my strengths as a tutor is my ability to adapt to different learning needs and styles. I can explain difficult concepts using real-life examples, visual aids, or interactive exercises, depending on what works best for the student. I also provide clear explanations, answer questions, and offer guidance in a clear and concise manner.
