Question

consider a politician discussion group consisting of eight Democrats three Republicans and seven Independents suppose that two group members are randomly selected in succession to attend political convention find the probability of selecting an independent and then a Democrat

Answer 1

Answer:

(38.8%...7/10), than (47%...8/17) I didnt know if u needrd it in fraction or percent.

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to first add up everyone. So in total there are 18 people.

There is than a 38.8% chance that a independent will be picked first. 7/18.

But since one person was picked already you have to subtract 1 person from the total, so now its out of 17.

There is now a 47% chance that a democrat will be picked next. 8/17.
