Question

A compound experiment consists of drawing at random twice without replacing from a jar with 3 red, 3 white, and 2 black marbles. What is the probability of getting first a red and then a black marble?

Answer 1

The solution to your problem about the probability of getting first a red and then a black marble is as follows:

(3 red / 8 total) * (2 black / 7 total) = 3/28 

Therefore, the probability of getting first a red and then a black marble is 3/28.
