back to the first question, probability to draw a purple is?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
7/9
OpenStudy (loser66):
you got it, after take out 1, you have 8 left, and the probability to draw out a white at that moment is?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
1/8 or 2/8 ?
OpenStudy (loser66):
get out just purple, the whole white there, that means 2/8

ok, I am not sure , too. give me few minutes, I check on my note
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay thank you
OpenStudy (dumbcow):
\[P(p,w) = \frac{7}{9}*\frac{2}{8} = \frac{7}{36}\]
\[P(w,w) = \frac{2}{9}*\frac{1}{8} = \frac{1}{36}\]
\[P(p,p) = \frac{7}{9}*\frac{6}{8} = \frac{21}{36}\]
