The probability of choosing two yellow marbles = 5/26
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 :
Given
Total number of marbles in the bag = 13 marbles
Number of yellow marbles = 6.
We choose 2 marbles from the bag without replacing and need to determine the probability that both are yellow.
Step 2 :
Probability of finding yellow marble in the first try = Number of yellow marbles / Total number of marbles =
Once the yellow marble is selected we have 5 yellow marbles among 12 remaining marbles in the bag.
Probability of finding yellow marble in the second try = Number of yellow marbles / Total number of marbles =
Step 3:
P(yellow in first 2 tries) = P(yellow in first try) * P(yellow in second try)
P(yellow in first 2 tries) = =
Step 4:
Answer:
The probability of choosing two yellow marbles = 5/26
Let us denote the smaller even integer by 
.
Then, the next even integer must be
.
To verify, set as any even number, say 
.
Then, the next even integer must be 2 more than this number, i.e.
.
The sum of these two consecutive even integers can be expressed as:
We are told that this sum divided by four is 189.5, i.e.
Multiplying both sides by 4 will reverse the division:
Subtracting 2 from each side will reverse the addition:
Dividing both sides by 2 will reverse the multiplication:
Therefore, the two consecutive integers must be 378 and 380.
Check this:
