a) Was this an observational study or an experiment? Explain.
b) Compute the following probabilities:
i) P(almond)
ii) P(red)
iii) P(red|almond)
iv) P(almond|red)
v) P(almond or red)
vi) P(almond and red)
e) Do the color distributions appear to be the same or different? Explain, using conditionalprobabilities.
