Answer:
0.164 = 16.4% probability that at least one color will be missing from the 10 selected balls.
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
Determine the probability that at least one color will be missing from the 10 selected balls.
Red missing:
Each time, there are 55 + 25 = 80 non-red balls, out of 100. So, in each of the 10 trials, 80% = 0.8 probability of not picking a red ball. The probability that no red ball is picked is given by:
(0.8)^10 = 0.1074
White missing:
55 + 20 = 75 non-white balls, out of 100, in each trial. The probability that no white ball is picked is given by:
(0.75)^10 = 0.0563
Blue missing:
45 non-blue balls, out of 100. The probability that no blue ball is picked is given by:
(0.45)^10 = 0.0003
Total:
0.1074 + 0.0563 + 0.0003 = 0.164
0.164 = 16.4% probability that at least one color will be missing from the 10 selected balls.
0.018 will be 18/1000 = 9/500
