If one card is selected, not replaced, and the second card selected, determine p(neither is a vowel) Answer by swincher4391(1107) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! We find that there are 5 + 5 = 10 vowels, while there are 7+10+3+20 = 40 consonants.
p(neither is a vowel) = p(consonant) * p(consonant | first was consonant) = 40/50 * 39/49 = 0.6367
