Urn 1 = 4 green balls and 6 blue balls, a total of 10 balls
Urn 2 = 6 green balls and 2 blue balls, a total of 8 balls.
Probability of blue balls:
Urn 1 : P = 6/10
Urn 2 : P = 2/8
Probability that both balls are blue:
6/10 * 2/8 = 6*2 / 10*8 = 12/80 = 6/40 = 3/20
Answer is B. 3/20
Step-by-step explanation:


To solve a system of equations, we can add the two equations and solve for one of the remaining variables -- let's try to eliminate the
variable when we add the two equations together.
Right now, there's a
term in the first equation, and a
term in the second equation, so if we add those together, we'll be able to eliminate the
variable altogether and solve for
.
However, when we also have a
term in the first equation and
term in the second equation, so adding these together will also eliminate the
term, leaving a
on the left-hand side of the equation.
If we add the two numbers on the right side of the equation, we get
, which does not equal
, meaning there are no solutions to this system of equations.
Two terms
bi is latin for two, therefore a binomial has two terms
