Question

A bag contains 1 red, 2 blue, 4 orange, and 3 purple marbles. A marble is drawn and not replaced. Then a second marble is drawn. 9. What is P(red, then orange)?

Answer 1

Hi there!

The correct answer is 2/45 or 4.44%

Explanation:

Since the first draw is a red marble it will be 1/10

but then marble is not put back and now you have 9 marbles

then you have a 4/9 chance of drawing an orange marble

then you multiply 1/10 by 4/9 = 4/90 then you can simplify 2/45

Answer 2

`\documentclass\begin{document}\\0.0\overline{4}`

Explanation:

Possibility of red is 1/10 and getting orange after is 4/9 because one marble has been removed so it is
`\document\begin{document}\\(1)/(10)*(4)/(9)=0.0\overline{4}`
