Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 7C

The probability of drawing a red and a blue marble from a bag of 12 different colored marbles is 166

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Consider the information provided in the question:

There are marbles 12 in a bag. Each marble is a different color, including red and blue.

Two marbles are drawn at random.

Formula used:

To find the number of combinations of n objects taken r at a time, divide the number of permutations of n objects taken r at a time by r!

  nCr=nPrr!

Calculation:

As per the problem,

Total number of marbles in the bag = 12

Number of marbles drawn at random = 2

Number of combinations in which two marbles can be drawn:

  12C2=12P22! [Use combinations formula: nCr=nPrr! ]

  =121121 [Write 12P2 and 2! as products]

  =66 [Divide out common factors and simplify]

There are 66 different combinations of marbles that can be drawn. Only one of the combinations includes a red and a blue marble.

So, the probability is 166 .

Hence,

The probability of drawing a red and a blue marble from a bag of 12 different colored marbles is 166
