Question 799745: An urn contains 7 blue and 3 yellow chips. If the drawing of chips is done with replacement, determine the probability of:
(a) Drawing three yellow chips.
There are a total of ten chips, three of which are yellow. Hence the probability of a yellow chip on any given draw is 0.3.
Three yellow chips with replacement means thre independent events each with the same probability, namely 0.3, so if event A is getting 3 yellow chips on three draws with replacement
