Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Probability without replacement is used when the outcome of one event affects the probability of the outcome of a subsequent event. In question 10, we are determining the probability of drawing a red ball and then a blue ball from a bag containing 3 red balls and 2 blue balls. The probability of drawing a red ball is 3/5, and the probability of drawing a blue ball after a red ball has been drawn is 2/4. The probability of drawing a red ball and then a blue ball is therefore (3/5) * (2/4) = 3/10.
