Question 524150: You have a bag containing the following marbles:
2 red
3 blue
5 green
Compute the probability of the following:
1. Pulling a red marble
2. Pulling a blue marble
3. Pulling a green marble
4. Pulling a red marble OR a green marble
5. Pulling a red marble, putting it back, AND then pulling a green marble
6. Pulling a green marble, putting it back, AND then pulling a green marble
7. Pulling a red marble THEN a blue marble
8. Pulling a blue marble THEN a blue marble
9. Pulling both red marbles
10. P(red OR blue)
The probability of anything is the number of ways that you can have a success divided by the number of ways that it can happen at all. You have 2 red marbles and 10 total marbles. Do the arithmetic.
What is the probability that I'm going to answer more than one question per post? Ans: Zero.
