Suppose we draw a marble from the box, replace it, and then draw another. Find the probability that:\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(a) Both marbles are red. \n" ); document.write( "P(r and r) = 7/10 *7/10 = 49/100 = 0.49 \n" ); document.write( "------------------------\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(b) Just one of the two marbles is red. \n" ); document.write( "Note: P(w and w) = (3/10)(3/10) = 0.09 \n" ); document.write( "----- \n" ); document.write( "P(one is red) = 1 - P(both are red)-P(both are white) = 1-0.49-0.09 = 0.42 \n" ); document.write( "-------------------- \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "------------- \n" ); document.write( " |
