Answer:

\frac{15}{28}  is the required probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of Marbles = Blue + Red = 3 + 5 = 8

Probability of getting blue = \frac{3}{8}

Probability of not getting a blue =\frac{5}{8}

To get exactly one blue in two draws, we either get a blue, not blue, or a not blue, blue.

<u>First Draw Blue, Second Draw Not Blue:</u>

1st Draw: P(Blue) = \frac{3}{8}

2nd Draw: P(Not\:Blue)=\frac{5}{7}  (since we did not replace the first marble)

To get the probability of the event, since each draw is independent, we multiply both probabilities.

P(Event)=\frac{3}{8}\cdot \frac{5}{7}=\frac{15}{56}

<u>First Draw Not Blue, Second Draw Not Blue:</u>

1st Draw: P(Not\:Blue)=\frac{5}{8}

2nd Draw: P(Not\:Blue)=\frac{3}{7}  (since we did not replace the first marble)

To get the probability of the event, since each draw is independent, we multiply both probabilities.

P(Event)=\frac{5}{8}\cdot \frac{3}{7}=\frac{15}{56}

To get the probability of exactly one blue, we add both of the events:

\frac{15}{56}+\frac{15}{56}=\frac{15}{28}

The area of a circle is 201 cm². What is the diameter
natima [27]

Answer:

The diameter would be 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is a=r^{2}×π. Now just plug in the values you have which is you area. 201=r^{2}×π now divide by pi on both sides you that you get about 64=r^{2}. Now find the square root on both sides which will then give you 8 as your radius. To find diameter from radius you have to multiply by 2. 8*2=16
