The cards are well shuffled. Suppose that you randomly draw two cards, one at a time, and without replacement.

Algebra.Com's Answer #708688 by htmentor(1343)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The easiest way to solve is to first compute P(no green). \n" ); document.write( "Then the probability of at least one green is \n" ); document.write( "P(at least one green) = 1 - P(no green) \n" ); document.write( "P(no green) = 4/9*3/8 = 12/72 = 1/6 \n" ); document.write( "Thus P(at least one green) = 1 - 1/6 = 5/6 \n" ); document.write( " |
