PLEASE HELP A bag contains red and blue marbles, such that the probability of drawing a blue marble is 3/8 An experiment consist
s of drawing a marble, replacing it, and drawing another marble. The two draws are independent. A random variable assigns the number of blue marbles to each outcome. What is the probability of drawing one blue marble?
The probability of drawing one blue marble is 3/8 because you have three blue marbles out of a total of eight marbles. The probability of drawing a second blue marble is also 3/8 but since you have to draw both marbles consecutively you have to multiply the probabilities of drawing each marble. So,
First, we can see that he used the Distributive property. Then after that, he used the Additive property. After that, he combined like terms and the used the additive property again. Finally, he used the divisive property.
