Answer 1

Not sure how many questions there are, but here goes with 6 and 7.

6.

Let's imagine there are 28 games. Team A wins 7 games and Team B wins 12 games. That means Team A has a probability of winning 7/28=1/4 and Team B a probability of winning 12/28=3/7. So when we look at all 28 games, we know that 19 games are won by either Team A or B. So the probability of either team winning must be 19/28.

Probability of neither student wearing glasses is (1-3/8)(1-2/5)=5/8*3/5=3/8. The other 3 possible outcomes consist of at least one student wearing glasses, so the probability for this is 1-3/8=5/8, since all the 4 possibilities must add up to 1 (certainty).
