1/2

Because there is 2 white counter and 1 black and there is a chance you will get white.

But a probability getting white is that there is 2 white counters.

What is the meaning of probability meter?

A probability meter is a visual aid to communicate the meaning of probabilities. It is usually a white and black circles that can be rotated to show segments of the circle corresponding to the probability; e.g. a one quarter segment of the circle black represents a probability of 25%.

What if a homozygous black guinea pig BB is crossed with homozygous white pig b what is the probability that an offspring will have lack fur?

If a homozygous black guinea pig (BB) is crossed with a homozygous white guinea pig (bb), all offspring will inherit one black allele (B) from the black parent and one white allele (b) from the white parent, resulting in heterozygous offspring (Bb). Since black fur is dominant over white fur, all offspring will have black fur. Therefore, the probability of an offspring having black fur is 100%.


What is the probability of drawing a white ball out of a bag with 2 green 3 white and 5 black?

The probability of a simple event is the number of ways to succeed over the total possibilities. So, there are three white balls, and ten balls total. So: P(white) = 3/10


What is the equation used to determine probability?

Number of possibilities for one category / Total of all possibilities. For example, if I had a bag of marbles where there are three white marbles and two black marbles. The probability of pulling out a white marble is how many white marbles are in the bag which is: three. But the total of things you can draw out of the bag can either be one of the three white marbles or one of the two black marbles. 3 white marbles+ 2 Black marbles= five marbles. Possibility is 3/5 for drawing a white marble.

Calculate the probability that an offspring will be black in the cross in punnet square b what is the probability it will be white?

What is the probability that it will not be black?

That would be based upon the remainder of the probability it could be anything else, depending upon all of the other choices (red, white, yellow, Caucasian...). For example, if there is a 99 percent chance it's white, and the only two choices are white or black, and there are no external constraints that prevent it from being less than random, there would be a 1 percent probability it would be black.

Why did college students protest not being allowed to sit at a lunch counter in greensboro?

A number of laws and rules evolved over the years separating black and white people. Then a well researched book, An American Dilemma, claimed that segregation prevented equality. College students read it and became determined to end segregation. Black people were not allowed to sit at the same lunch counters as white people. Black students wanting equality knew they had to start somewhere and decided to attack that rule. They started by sitting at the white lunch counter.


12 counters are arranged in 4 dishes how could you rearrange the shaded or white counters to clearly show two equivalent fractions?

move one unshaded counter to the 3rd dish that only has two circles in it. You have 12 total counters ..9 are shaded 3 are not. fractions would be 9/12 and 3/4 (9 counters are shaded out of 12 total counters) and (3 dishes out of 4 are shaded)

If you have a spinner with white black and stripes on it what is the probability that the spinner will land on the black space twice?

The probability of landing on black twice on a spinner with white, black, and striped sections is (1/3)^2 = 1/9. This is because there is a 1/3 chance of landing on black on each spin, and the spins are independent events.
