Answer 2

Answer:

Color : ___Green __yellow ___purple __ Grey

Prob : ____0.30 ___0.10 ______ 0.35 ___ 0.25

4 pins

Step-by-step explanation:

Color : ___Green __yellow ___purple __ Grey

Prob : ___. _______________ 0.35 ___ 0.25

P(green) = 3 * P(yellow)

ΣP = 1

Let

P(yellow) = x

P(green) = 3x

Hence,

x + 3x + 0.35 + 0.25 = 1

4x + 0.60 = 1

4x = 1 - 0.60

4x = 0.40

x = 0.4 / 4

x = 0.1

Hence,

P(yellow) = 0.1

P(green) = 0.1 * 3 = 0.3

Color : ___Green __yellow ___purple __ Grey

Prob : ____0.30 ___0.10 ______ 0.35 ___ 0.25

B)

If there are 14 pins in bag :

Number of green pins :

X * p(x)

14 * 0.3

= 4.2

= 4 pins
