<u><em>ANSWERS ARE AT THE BOTTOM.</em></u>

To find the probability of 2 events happening in a row, we need to <u><em>multiply their probabilities.</em></u>

For example, if a friend bet: "If you roll a six on a dice and filp and coin and get heads, then I'll give you 500 bucks. However, if you don't roll a six and flip and coin and get heads in a row, then you have to give me 500 bucks."

You want to know the probability of you winning this bet.

So, we need to multiply the probability of rolling a six, and the probability of flipping a coin and landing heads.

This is 1/6 * 1/2

That is 1/12

You probably should't take this bet, because you only have a 1/12 chance of winning.

Lets go back to your problem. The jar contains 16 red marbles and 28 blue marbles. The probability of picking a red marble right now is 16/28, or 4/7. Assume we picked a red marble on our first try. Now, there are only 15 red marbles. The probability of picking a red marble right now is 15/28.

Probability of picking a red marble on your first try:  4/7

Probability of picking a red marble on your second try:  15/28

Now, we need to multiply the probabilities.

4/7 * 15/28

60/196

15/49

<u><em>ANSWER:</em></u>

<em>15/49</em>

A store is having a sale on jelly beans and almonds. For 6 pounds of jelly beans and 2 pounds of almonds, the total cost is $12
CaHeK987 [17]

Solution:

Let each pond of  jelly beans cost $x.

and each pond of almonds cost $y.

Then we can write

6x+2y=12.......(i)

3x+5y=15.....(ii)

Now solve these two equations together using substitution we get

3x=15-5y

30-10y+2y=12\\&#10;\\&#10;-8y=12-30\\&#10;\\&#10;-8y=-18\\&#10;\\&#10;y=2.25\\&#10;\\&#10;3x=15-5y=15-5*2.25=3.75\\&#10;\\&#10;x=1.25

Hence each pond of jelly bean cost 1.25$

Each pond of almond costs 2.25$
