Question

1. Suppose that a bag contains 3 red chips and 7 white chips. Suppose that chips are drawn from the bag with replacement, i.e. the chips are returned to the bag and shuffled before the next chip is selected. Identify the correct statement.

	a.	If many chips are selected then, in the long run, approximately 30% will be red.
	b.	If ten chips are selected then three will definitely be red.
	c.	If seven consecutive white chips are selected then the next chip will definitely be red.
	d.	If ten chips are selected then seven will definitely be white.
