A box contains 15 cards. There are 5 red cards labeled 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. There are 5 blue cards labeled 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. There are 5 green cards labeled 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. One card is drawn from the box. What is the probability that it is a green card with an even number or a blue card?
this one?
yea
k
its hard
im not sure
meant to post a while ago lol
haha
There are 2 green cards with even numbers and there are 5 blue cards. Therefore there are 2 + 5 = 7 cards involved in the calculation. The probability of selecting a green card with an even number or a blue card is 7/15
he must be typing a lot of words
thanks @kropot72
thanks @foreverandalways13
what about this one?
A box contains 10 cards numbered 1 through 10. Which events are mutually exclusive?
A. A card is drawn from the box and the number is even. A card is drawn from the box and the number is 4. B. A card is drawn from the box and the number is even. A card is drawn from the box and the number is 2. C. A card is drawn from the box and the number is odd. A card is drawn from the box and the number is 1. D. A card is drawn from the box and the number is even. A card is drawn from the box and the number is 1.
wow they make things complicated huh?
very
lol
In events A, B and C it is possible that the card that is drawn first is the card that is said to be drawn next. In these cases the overall event is impossible the reason being that the sub-events cannot happen together and are therefore mutually exclusive.
