Yep. It was always a really useful resource but I looked at the update a week or two ago and it looks phenomenal.

Also, if anyone knows Craig Barton, please ask him to come on here. The #MathsToday crowd are very active and it seems weird he isn’t here.

Replace each of a, b, c and d in the Venn diagram with one of the probabilities below:
0.15
0.3
0.1
0.45

Work out P(A), P(B) and P(An B) from your diagram. Are events A and B independent?
Find a way of arranging the probabilities so that A and B are independent.
How many ways of doing this are there, if you are not allowed to repeat a probability?
What if repeats are allowed?

I am stuck if any kind soul can help. In the Edexcel Core 1 chapter on roots of polynomials Ex4C Q9, you end up with these four equations, which I haven’t been able to solve.
Solution bank just ‘spots’ the solution, which isn’t very satisfactory.
