Answer:1/19

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of red balls: 5

Number of green balls: 6

Number of yellow balls: 9

Total number of balls= 5+6+9= 20

Let probability of red balls = Pr(red balls)

PR(red balls)= 5/20

Hence probability of picking first ball as red = 5/20

Probability of picking second ball without replacing the first ball:

This implies that by picking second ball to be red, the number of red ball would decrease by 1. Also the total number of balls would also decrease by 1 because it isn't replaced.

PR(2nd ball) = 4/19

Pr(1st ball red and 2nd ball red)= 5/20 * 4/19

=(5*4)/(20×19)

20/(20/19)

= 1/19

<span>You divide unit per price = 10/$6.75 = $1.48 12/$7.25 = $1.65 Which means 10 units are cheaper</span>
