To determine the probability that exactly two of the five marbles are blue, we will use the rule of multiplication.
Let event A = the event that the first marble drawn is blue; and let B = the event that the second marble drawn is blue.
To start, it is given that there are 50 marbles, 20 of them are blue. Therefore, P(A) = 20/50
After the first selection, there are 49 marbles left, 19 of them are blue. Therefore, P(A|B) = 19/49
Based on the rule of multiplication:P(A ∩ B) = P(A)*P(A|B)P(A ∩ B) = (20/50) (19/49)P(A ∩ B) = 380/2450P(A ∩ B) = 38/245 or 15.51%
The probability that there will be two blue marbles among the five drawn marbles is 38/245 or 15.51%
We got the 15.51% by dividing 38 by 245. The quotient will be 0.1551. We then multiplied it by 100% resulting to 15.51%
1.64 million rounded to the nearest million is 2 million.
When rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 2 feet per second<span> or </span>5 miles per hour<span>, they are called unit rates. If you have a multiple-unit rate such as 120 students for every 3 buses, and want to find the single-unit rate, write a ratio equal to the multiple-unit rate with 1 as the second term.</span>
