Answer: 35%

Step-by-step explanation:

8 + 5 + 7 = 20

50% = 10

25% = 5

10% = 2

5% = 1

25% + 10% = 5+2

35% = 7

Jerome is going to draw a marble from the bag shown below, replace it, and then draw another marble. What is the probability tha

alexira [117]

Marbles in a bag: 3 green, 4 yellow, 5 blue, 8 pink.

Event A - get a green or yellow marble
Event B - get a pink marble

Events A and B are independent because we draw a marble from a bag with 20 marbles in both cases.
$P(A)= \frac{3+4}{3+4+5+8}= \frac{7}{20} 
\\P(B)= \frac{8}{3+4+5+8}= \frac{8}{20} = \frac{2}{5}$

Probability of combined events is
$P(A) \times P(B)=\frac{7}{20} \times \frac{2}{5} =\frac{7}{50}$
