Step-by-step explanation:
- Five balls are drawn from the bag
- The bag contains
- 7 blue marbles
- 4 black marbles
- The probability of all the marbles drawn are blue.
- The probability of 3 marbles will be blue and 2 black.
Given
The bag contains 7 blue marbles and 4 black marbles.
The total number of marbles
= 7 + 4
= 11
Number of possibilities of taking 5 marbles out of 11 marbles =
Number of possibilities of taking 5 marbles out of 7 marbles =
The probability that all the balls drawn are blue
As we know that:-
(i) Probability that all the marbles drawn are blue = 1/22
Now, probability that the marbles drawn are 3 blue and 2 black.
Number of possibilities of taking 3 blue marbles from 7
=
Number of possibilities of taking 3 blue marbles from 4
=
Total number of possibilities =
Probability that the marbles drawn are 3 blue and 2 black.
(ii) Probability that all the marbles 3 blue and 3 black = 41/462
