You can put this solution on YOUR website! There are 9 apples in a bag; 5 are red and 4 are yellow.
Two apples are selected at random, one after another with replacement, and the color of each is noted.
Find the probablity that at least 1 is red?
----
P(at least one red) = 1 - P(none is red)
---
= 1 -(4/9)(4/9)
---
= 1 - 16/81
---
= 65/81
