Suppose i pick a jelly bean at random from a box containing two red and ten blue ones. i record the color and put the jelly bean back in the box. if i do this three times, what is the probability of getting a blue jelly bean each time? (round your answer to three decimal places.)

Respuesta :

The probability of picking a blue jelly bean is 10/12=0.833, since there are 10 blue and 12 jelly beans in total.

Each time the probability of picking blue is the same, since put back in the box whatever jelly bean we pick

P(blue, blue, blue) = P(blue) × P(blue) × P(blue) = 0.833×0.833×0.833=0.579


Answer: 0.579
