Respuesta :
The probability of getting a green marble and rolling an even number is
4/29.
What is defined as the compound events?
A compound event is one that includes more than one sample point.
- Compound events are slightly more complicated than simple events.
- Such events involve the possibility of multiple events occurring concurrently.
- The probabilities of the both events are multiplied to find compound events.
For the given question, we must multiply the probability of selecting a green marble and going to roll an even number.
The total marbles contained in the jar are;
- 10 red marbles,
- 8 green marbles,
- 5 blue marbles, and
- 6 white marbles
The formula for probability is;
P(event) = favourable outcome/total outcome
There are six sides to a die/number cube. Each has a 1/6 chance of happening.
There are three even numbers in this situation. The probability of an even number is:
P(even) = 3/6 = 1/2
The probability of selecting the green marble;
P (green marble) = 8/29
We must now determine the likelihood of both events occurring. So multiply both probabilities to get the following answer:
8/29 × 1/2 = 4/29
The probability of selecting a green marble as well as rolling an even number are 4/29.
