Answer 1

Answer: This may help you

Step-by-step explanation:

A bag contains 5 white and 5 red balls whereas another bag contains 6 white and 4 red balls.

The sample space of a bag contains 5 white and 5 red balls whereas another bag contains 6 white and 4 red balls.

S={5,5,6,4}

n(S)= 20 balls

Let the event of the ball drawn from any of the bag is white be A.

A={5,6} n(A)=11

P(A)= n(A)

-----

n(S)

= 11

----

20

P(A)= 11/20
