Coin Tossing. A balanced dime is tossed three times. The possible outcomes can be represented as follows.
Here, for example. HHT means that the first two tosses come up heads and the third tails. Find the probability that
(a) exactly two of the three tosses come up heads.
(b) the last two tosses come up tails.
(c) all three tosses come up the same.
(d) the second toss comes up heads.

Graduate Science Students. According to Survey of Graduate Science Engineering Students and Postdoctorates, published by the U.S. National Science Foundation, the distribution of graduate science students in doctorate-granting institutions is as follows.
Frequencies are in thousands. Note: Earth sciences include atmospheric and ocean sciences as well.
A graduate science student who is attending a doctorate-granting institution is selected at random. Determine the probability that the field of the student obtained is
(a) psychology.
(b) physical or social science.
(c) not computer science.
