1) first pick red 5/9 blue 4/9
2) second pick when red has been picked red now becomes 4/8, blue stays 4/8
2) Second pick when blue has been picked blue now becomes 3/8, red stays 5/8
Mind you, you only need both different colours so:
first pick red 5/9 x sec pick blue 4/8 = 20/72
and first pick blue 4/9 x sec pick red 5/8 = 20/72
add both up 20/72 + 20/72 = 40/72 = 5/9
Sorry, but there is no table to the right. Please put the table.
It would take her about 15 seconds
The correct answer is $44.20.
If we add up all the tips, the total is $442. If we divide this by the number of days (10), then we find the mean.
442 / 10 = 44.2
