A = it rains tomorrow
B = you go to the park
P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B) only if the two events are independent
OpenStudy (anonymous):
do you know the answer
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
yeah just multiply the probabilities
OpenStudy (anonymous):
whats that
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

hello
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
you should do 0.8 times 0.1
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
80% = 0.8
10% = 0.1

The table below shows the number of marbles of different colors in a bag:
Color of Marbles Number of Marbles
Pink 5
Blue 2
Green 3
Ursula draws a marble from the bag randomly without looking. She then draws another marble from the bag without replacing the first one. Which expression shows the probability of drawing green marbles in both the trials?
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
show me what you have so far
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what do you mean
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i can show you the answers

jim
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
what is the probability of drawing 1 green marble?
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
hint: look at the number of green and the number total
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wat
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
how many green marbles are there

3
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
out of how many total?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
10
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
so the probability of getting green is 3/10
that's the first draw
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
on the second draw, we do NOT replace the marble
so we have 2 green out of 9 total
the probability of getting another green on the second draw is 2/9
