Step-by-step explanation:
5 beads each a different color
so every time she picks a bead she has a 1/5 probability of picking a certain color
she does it 3 times so you get:
1/5 x 1/5 x 1/5 = 1/125 probability of picking those colors
[tex]\frac{1}{25}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem we have the standard definition of a probability, that is:
[tex]P=\frac{n\° cases}{n\° total events}[/tex]
So, we have to identify how many cases are about the probability that it's being asked, and then we divide it by the total number of events possible.
In this case, each bead has the same probability of being picked, that is, [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex], because we have 5 beads in total, and only one of each color. So, all beads have [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] of probability to be selected.
In addition, Tina wants to reproduce the experiment three times, where she puts back each bead after being picked, this means that each events is independent, that is, each bead doesn't influence the probability of others. When events are independent, this is shown as a multiplication, so basically we have to multiply three times the same fraction.
[tex]P = \frac{1}{5} \frac{1}{5} \frac{1}{5} = \frac{1}{125}[/tex]
Therefore, the probability of picking first a red bead, second a green one and third a red one agains, is [tex]\frac{1}{125}[/tex], which is a pretty low chance, it's hard to happen.
the answer is 1 over 125
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of picking red on first draw = 1/5
but then the bead is put back
probability of picking green = 1/5
but then the bead is put back
probability of picking red again = 1/5
1/5 * 1/5 * 1/5 = 1/125 <===
The answer is 1 over 125
Required Probability = 1 over 125 (1/125)
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a box has 5 beads of the same size, but all are different colors. Tina draws a bead randomly from the box, notes its color, and then puts the bead back in the box. She repeats this 3 times.
We have to find the probability for the case when Tina pick a red bead on the first draw, then a green bead and finally a red bead again.
We have to first note here is that this a case of with replacement situation.
Probability formula is given by =
Now, Probability of picking a red bead on first draw
= =
Similarly, Probability of picking a green bead on second draw
= =
Probability of picking a red bead on again on third draw
= =
Here, after picking each bead the number of beads available for another draw will be 5 only because Tina draws a bead randomly from the box, notes its color, and then puts the bead back in the box. So, number of total beads remained 5 only.
Hence, required probability =
=
