Exercise: An exercise catalog for the final exam in geostatistics contain N exercises. 20% of these N exercises will be tested within the exam. 50% of the questions have to be answered right to pass the exam. A student prepares m exercises and memorized them in-depth.
a) Assume: N={100,200,400,600}. How likely will the student pass the exam, if he/she prepares N/2 exercises (50% of the catalog)? Remember: at least 50% of the question have to be answered right for a successful examination.

Exercise: During an online shopping session 50 product links have been collected in the browser cache. Six out of 50 had been definitly of users interest. Unfortunatly, the user forgot to clear the cache after his/her excessive session. Next day he/she send a request to an ad-fundet news site with 8 ad-spaces which are randomly filled with links out of the browser cache. Calculate the probability, that at least 4 ad-spaces will be filled to site-ads, which are related to the six interesting sites of the last day shopping adventure.
