Question

Mauricio is buying his wife flowers for their anniversary. The florist has 5 red roses, 4 yellow roses, and 3 pink roses. What is the probability he will select 1 yellow rose the 2 red rose. Independent or Dependent

Answer 1

We will have the following:

The probability will be given by:

$p=(\frac{1}{12})(\frac{5}{11})(\frac{4}{10})\Rightarrow p=\frac{1}{66}$$\Rightarrow p=0.01515151515\ldots\Rightarrow p\approx0.015$

So, the probability of that happening is approximately 15%.

It is dependent.
