a bag contains 2 red, 7 black, and 8 white balls. three balls are drawn, without replacement. what is the probability that one of each color is drawn? (enter your probability as a fraction.)

Sagot :

14/85 is the probability that one of each color is drawn.

How does probability explain work?

  • How likely something is to occur is known as its probability.
  • We can discuss the probabilities of various outcomes, or how likely they are, whenever we are unsure of how an event will turn out.
  • Statistics is the study of events subject to probability.

Red balls = 2

black balls = 7

white balls = 8

total balls  = 2 + 7 + 8 = 17

p( one ball from each color = ²C₁ * ⁷C₁ * ⁸C₁/ ¹⁷C₃

                                              = 2 * 7 * 8//680

                                              = 14/85
