If a box contains 4 red marbles seven white and 5 blue and two marbles are drawn one at a time with replacement What is the probability that both marbles are white?

Since the box contains 16 marbles, seven of them white, then the probability of drawing one white marble is 7/16. If you replace the marble and draw again, the probability of drawing another white marble is still 7/16. The net probability of drawing two white marbles, while replacing the first, is 49/256.


What are the odds in favor of choosing a white marble from a bag containing 3 black marbles 4 green marbles and 6 white marbles?

The probability of drawing a white marble is .46


What is the probability of drawing a white marble then a red marble if there are 3 red marbles and 2 white marbles?

5 marbles. 3 red marbles, 2 white marbles.The probability of drawing a white marble is P(W) = 2/5 = 0.40If the white marble is not returned to the rest of the marbles (no substitution), theprobability that the second marble drawn is a red one is P(R) = 3/4 = 0.75.The probability that the event of drawing first a white marble and without substitutionthe second draw turns a red marble is P(1stW,2ndR) = (2/5)∙(3/4) = 6/20 = 3/10 = 0.30 = 30.0%.If the process of drawing the marbles is with substitution, the probability of thesecond draw turning a red marble is P(R) = 3/5 = 0.60 = 60.0%The probability that the event of first drawing a white marble and after returning themarble back to the original group of marbles (with substitution) the second draw turns a red marble is P(1stW,2ndR) = (2/5)∙(3/5) = 6/25 = 0.24 = 24.0%.


A bag contains 3 blue marbles 7 red marbles and 5 yellow marbles. If Joe picks 1 marble from the bag at random what is the probability that it will be blue?

Leave all answers as a ratio in lowest terms. 18 points On a single draw, what is the probability of drawing a yellow marble? What is the probability of not drawing a yellow marble? What are the odds in favor of drawing a blue marble? What is the probability of drawing a red or yellow marble? What is the probability of drawing a purple marble? If you had to bet on drawing a marble of a certain color what color would you not choose?


There are 9 red and 6 blue marbles in a jar If you draw red marbles from the jar 7 times what is the experimental probability of drawing a red marble?

The answer is dependent on whether of not you replace the marbles in the jar. If you do, the probability of drawing a red marble is 9 in 15 or 60%, every time. If you do not replace the marbles, the probability of drawing a red marble is 2 in 8 or 25%.

The table below shows the number of marbles of different colors in a bag Marble Experiment Color of Marbles Number of Marbles Red 1 White 5 Black 10 Ursula draws a marble from the bag randomly without?

Ursula has a total of 16 marbles in the bag (1 red, 5 white, and 10 black). When she draws a marble randomly, the probability of drawing each color can be calculated based on their quantities. The probability of drawing a red marble is 1/16, a white marble is 5/16, and a black marble is 10/16. This means that black marbles are the most likely to be drawn, followed by white and then red.


A bag contains 8 marbles 4 are blue 3 are green and one is orange you draw out one marble and then another without replacing the first marble Find the probability of drawing 2 blue marbles?

Probability of drawing a blue marble first is 4 in 8 (or 50%) Probability of drawing a blue marble second is 3 in 7 (or 42.85714%) Probablility of drawing blue then blue is the two above multiplied 0.5 * 0.4285714 Which is 0.212142407 or 21% or One in Five.


A bag has 13 green marbles What is the probability pf drawing out a green marble?

your probability would be 13/13. you would have a 100 percent chance of getting a green marble


What is the probability of not drawing a green marble?

To calculate the probability of not drawing a green marble, first determine the total number of marbles and the number of green marbles. The probability of not drawing a green marble is then given by the ratio of the number of non-green marbles to the total number of marbles. This can be expressed as: [ P(\text{not green}) = \frac{\text{Number of non-green marbles}}{\text{Total number of marbles}}. ] Without specific numbers, the exact probability cannot be computed.


In a bag there are 4 red marbles 5 white marbles and 6 blue marbles once a marble is selected it is not replaced what are the odds of pulling a red marble than a white marble?

The odds of pulling a red marble on the first try is 4/15 or about .27 and the probability of drawing a white marble the second time if a the first is a red marble is 5/14 or about .36. the odds of both happening is the product of the probabilities of the other events, or 2/21.
