There are 9 red gum balls, 5 green gum balls, 8 yellow gum balls, and 8 blue gum balls in a machine. Find P(green, then yellow). (1 point)

OpenStudy (juakikun):

Isn't this a CA question o-o? just wondering cause i might have it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The probability of picking a green one first is 5/30=1/6. Then since we have taken one ball out the probability of picking a yellow one is 8/29. We multiply these together for the answer.

yeah(:

OpenStudy (juakikun):

What lesson number was it again? xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lesson 2

OpenStudy (juakikun):

Huh sadly, i dont have it but its mostly the same way bfsgd said to figure out the real answer, my question is different from that cause mine says 6 red marbles, 6 white, 4 blue, Find P for red or blue which is 10/16 divided by a half giving me the answer 5/8

OpenStudy (juakikun):

So if you do what he said, you'll get the answer. o: sorry about that, i thought i would have ur answer automatically xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is the answer 5/30?

OpenStudy (juakikun):

A. 400 over 900 B. 5 over 30 C. 8 over 30 D. 40 over 870 These are your answer choices right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah

OpenStudy (juakikun):

your answer is probably D. 40/870 cause u times 5/30 with 8/29 gives you that answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay. thanks
