The probability that the marbles selected are of the same colour is; 5/18

<h3>Probability of outcome</h3>

The probability that the marbles are the same colour includes:

  • The probability of 2 reds, 2 whites, 2 greens.

The total number of marbles = 9 marbles.

Since, the selection is without replacement;

The probability of selecting same colour marbles is;

  • {4/9×3/8} + {2/9×1/8} + {3/9×2/8}

The probability of selecting same colour marbles is therefore;

  • 12/72 + 2/72 + 6/72

  • = 5/18

Check the picture below.  Recall, is an open-top box, so, the top is not part of the surface area, of the 300 cm².  Also, recall, the base is a square, thus, length = width = x.

\bf \textit{volume of a rectangular prism}\\\\&#10;V=lwh\quad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;l = length\\&#10;w=width\\&#10;h=height\\&#10;-----\\&#10;w=l=x&#10;\end{cases}\implies V=xxh\implies \boxed{V=x^2h}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\textit{surface area}\\\\&#10;S=4xh+x^2\implies 300=4xh+x^2\implies \cfrac{300-x^2}{4x}=h&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\boxed{\cfrac{75}{x}-\cfrac{x}{4}=h}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;V=x^2\left( \cfrac{75}{x}-\cfrac{x}{4} \right)\implies V(x)=75x-\cfrac{1}{4}x^3

so.. that'd be the V(x) for such box, now, where is the maximum point at?

\bf V(x)=75x-\cfrac{1}{4}x^3\implies \cfrac{dV}{dx}=75-\cfrac{3}{4}x^2\implies 0=75-\cfrac{3}{4}x^2&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{3}{4}x^2=75\implies 3x^2=300\implies x^2=\cfrac{300}{3}\implies x^2=100&#10;\\\\\\&#10;x=\pm10\impliedby \textit{is a length unit, so we can dismiss -10}\qquad \boxed{x=10}

now, let's check if it's a maximum point at 10, by doing a first-derivative test on it.  Check the second picture below.

so, the volume will then be at   \bf V(10)=75(10)-\cfrac{1}{4}(10)^3\implies V(10)=500 \ cm^3
