Question
uestion 13 of 24> Flossie, the chimpanzee, is highly particular in her eating habits. The zookeeper arrives at her cage each morning with a choice of treats, consisting of apples (A), bananas (B), and pears (P). If Flossie finishes her first piece of fruit, which she does most of the time, she is allowed to choose a second one. Interestingly, the zookeeper has noted that she never chooses a pear after choosing an apple, although she chooses all other orderings. The possibilities are depicted in the tree diagram.Explanation / Answer
Correct answer: A,B,P,AB,AA,BA,BP,BB,PP,PA,PB
as she does not choose P after A hence AP is not an option but PA can be a option because there is no restrictions on choosing P after A
she mostly choose second fruit but there may be a possibility that she will not choose second fruit hence A,B,P are the valid sample items
Option 1 PA is a valid sample item which is not in this sample hence it is wrong option
Option 2 it does not include choice of second fruit hence it is wrong option
Option 3 it is right option
Option 4 AP is not a valid sample item which is in this sample hence it is wrong option
Option 5 AP is not a valid sample item which is in this sample hence it is wrong option
Option 6 she mostly choose second fruit but there may be a possibility that she will not choose second fruit hence A,B,P are the valid sample item which is not in this sample hence it is wrong option
