Answer:
a) 0.3246
b) 0.0043
Step-by-step explanation:
- For player 1 ; Probability of winning = P(W) = 1/3
- Probability of loosing; P(winning) + P( Loosing) = 1
a) To find Find P(N <= 10) = P(2)+P(3)+P(4)+P(5)+P(6)+P(7)+P(8)+P(9)+P(10)
= (1/3)^2 + (1/3)^2 x 2/3 + (1/3)^2 x (2/3)^2 + (1/3)^2x (2/3)^3 + (1/3)^2 x (2/3)^4
X (1/3)^2 x (2/3)^5 + (1/3)^2 x (2/3)^6 + (1/3)^2 x (2/3)^7 + (1/3)^2 x (2/3)^8
= 0.3246
b) Find P(N = 10) = (1/3)^2 x (2/3)^8 = 0.0043
The answer is 67 because you cross multiply 4/100 with x/1675 (:
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
i have attached a tree diagram to help with your understanding, first branches show probability of picking either green or red the first time she picks one. The next set of branches show the updated probabilities after one pencil has been taken out.
