QuestionA ball is drawn randomly from a jar that contains 4 red balls, 4 white balls, and 9 yellow ball. Find the probability of the given event. (a) A red ball is drawn;
The probability is : P(R)=P(R)= (b) A white ball is drawn;
The probability is : P(W)=P(W)= (c) A yellow ball is drawn;
The probability is : P(Y)=P(Y)= \square

Studdy Solution
Calculate the probability of drawing a yellow ball.
P(Y)=Number of yellow ballsTotal number of balls=917 P(Y) = \frac{\text{Number of yellow balls}}{\text{Total number of balls}} = \frac{9}{17}
The probabilities are:
(a) P(R)=417 P(R) = \frac{4}{17}
(b) P(W)=417 P(W) = \frac{4}{17}
(c) P(Y)=917 P(Y) = \frac{9}{17}
