Question
Sometimes, a statistical experiment can have n possible outcomes, each of which is equally likely. Suppose a subset of r outcomes are classified as "successful" outcomes. The probability that the experiment results in a successful outcome (S) is: P(S) = ( Number of successful outcomes ) / ( Total number of equally likely outcomes ) = r / n
Simplify your answers if possible (write the answer in
the simplest form, cancel all common factors in the
fractions)
A basket contains 5 blue marbles, 6 green marbles and 9
red marbles. If an experimenter randomly selects 1
marble from the basket, what is the probability that it:
a) will be blue
b)
will be red
c) will NOT be blue
will be blue or green
d)
e) will be yellow
will NOT be yellow
will be blue or green or red
