Answer 1

The probability that first a red bead is drawn and next a blue bead is drawn is 7/30,and both events are dependent

How to determine the probability?

The distribution of the beads are:

Red = 3

Blue = 7

Total = 10

The probability of selecting the red bead first is:

P(Red) = 3/10

When the red bead is selected, the number of beads becomes 9

So, the probability of selecting a blue bead is

P(Blue) = 7/9

The probability of the event is then calculated using:

P = 3/10 * 7/9

Evaluate

P = 7/30

Hence, the probability of the event is 7/30
