What is the probability of drawing two blue marbles if the first one is placed back in the bag before the second draw

Break it down into two parts. First, what is the probability of drawing a blue marble on the first draw?Since there are 5 blue marbles and 10 total, the probability is 5⁄10, or 1/2. Now since we no longer have that blue marble, there are 4 blue marbles and 9 total. The chances of drawing a blue marble are 4/9. Therefore, the chance that both marbles drawn are blue is the chance that the first one is blue times the chance that the second one is blue. 1/2 * 4/9 = 4/18 = 2/9 Remember, math is always trying to trick you. It wants you to try and do the whole big problem at once, which can be difficult. Break it down into smaller problems, then use your answers to small parts to find the answer to the big question. Hope that helps,

Suppose that there are five young women and six young men on an island. Each woman is willing to marry some of the men on the is
pochemuha

Answer:

Based on the current information, the last man remaining unmarried will be a choice between two

Jason marries Anna

Matt marries Elizabeth

Kevin marries Barbara

Larry marries Diane

Carol can marry either Nick or Oscar

Step-by-step explanation:

The basic method to sort which woman will be marrying which man is simple.

We have to extract the choice by comparing choices of each woman side by side and then selecting the least common one and hence sorting one by one.

First, let's name all the women and men

1. Anna

2. Barbara

3. Carol

4. Diane

5. Elizabeth

We will refer to them with the initial letter of their name . A for Anna, B for Barbara, C for Carol, D for Diane, E for Elizabeth.

The men :

1. Jason

2. Larry

3. Matt

4. Kevin

5. Oscar

6. Nick

And they will be referred as J for Jason, L for Larry, M for Matt, K for Kevin, O for Oscar  and N for Nick.

Options for A : J , L ,M

Options for B : K, L

Options for C : J, N , O

Options for D : J, L , N , O

Options for E : J, M

As we can see , no one else wants Kevin other than Barbara so :

Kevin marries Barbara

Moving onwards:

Elizabeth can marry either Jason or Matt,

Meanwhile Anna can marry either Jason , Larry or Matt  

Hence,

Matt marries Eilzabeth

as Anna has two more choices still which are Jason and Larry.

Further, seeing the options for Carol and Diane

Carol can marry either Jason, Nick or Oscar while Diane can marry Larry as well as Jason , Nick and Oscar

We can select Jason as the match for Anna as Larry is also a choice for Diane.

Hence, Jason marries Anna

Now we are left with Larry , Nick and Oscar.

Since Carol can only decide from Nick and Oscar but Diane can decide from Larry, Nick and Oscar. Larry is the ideal option for Diane

so, Larry marries Diane

Now in the end, Carol can either choose between Nick or Oscar.

If she chooses Nick to marry, Oscar is left single

If she chooses Oscar to marry, Nick is left single.
