Answer: So, the probability will be
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Number of blue balls =30
Number of red balls = 40
Number of white balls = 30
Since there are 100 balls in total ,
As we have given that there is no white ball chosen.
So, only 70 balls are left with us , from which we choose a blue ball
So, the probability will be
Since the sum of the probabilities of all possible outcomes must be 100%, we can deduce the following:
- Cooking in under 20 minutes: 10%
- Cooking between 20 and 30 minutes: 85%
- Cooking in more than 30 minutes: 5%
In fact, the probabilities of cooking in less than 20 or more than 30 sum up to 15%, which means that the remaining outcome (i.e. cooking time between 20 and 30) must complete this probability to 15, and in fact 15+85=100.
That being said, all three answers are simply a combination of these three scenarios: let C be the cooking time, for aesthetic reasons:
