Suppose an opaque jar contains 3 red marbles and 10 green marbles. The following exercise refers to the experiment of picking tw

o marbles from the jar without replacing the first one. What is the probability of getting a green marble and a red marble? (Enter your probability as a fraction. Hint: How is this exercise different from finding the probability of getting a green marble first and a red marble second?)

Answer:

\frac{5}{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Red marbles = 3,

Green marbles = 10,

So, the total marbles = 3 + 10 = 13,

\because \text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

Since, here replacement is not allowed,

Thus, the probability of getting a green marble and a red marble

= first red and second green + first green second red

=\frac{3}{13}\times \frac{10}{12}+\frac{10}{13}\times \frac{3}{12}

=2\times \frac{3}{13}\times \frac{10}{12}

=\frac{30}{78}

=\frac{5}{13}

Note : The probability of getting a green marble first and a red marble second

= \frac{10}{13}\times \frac{3}{12}

=\frac{30}{156}

=\frac{5}{26}

Complete the function table.
Nesterboy [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

with the y= 4x +1

they find the first column by replacing x in the function by 0

meaning if x= 0 then y=4(0) + 1 so y=1

for the second column if x =2 then y= 4(2) +1 so y= 9

for the 3rd one if x =4 then y = 4(4)+1 so y = 17
