A bag of 10 jellybeans consists of 6 cherry and 4 licorice. 3 jellybeans are selected.
\n" ); document.write( "a.Find the probability that 2 cherry and 1 licorice are selected.
\n" ); document.write( "# of ways to succeed:: 6C2*4C1 = 15*4 = 60
\n" ); document.write( "# of random triples:: 13C3 = 286
\n" ); document.write( "P(2 cherry and 1 lic) = 60/286 = 0.2098
\n" ); document.write( "==================================================
\n" ); document.write( "b.Find the probability that all 3 are licorice.
\n" ); document.write( "# of ways to succeed: 4C3 = 4
\n" ); document.write( "Ans:: 4/286 = 0.0140
