There are 8 marbles in a bag. each marble is a different color. the colors are: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, black, and white. two marbles are randomly drawn from the bag without replacement.

what is the probability that the red marble is drawn first and the white marble is drawn second?

a. 1/64

b. 1/56

c. 1/28

d. 1/4

B. 1/56

Explanation:

There are 8 different marbles. In the first draw, you have a one out of 8 chance of getting the red. In the second draw, there are 7 marbles remaining, so a one out of 7 chance of drawing a white marble. To find the total probability of drawing the red and then white marble, we multiply the probabilities if each draw.

(1/8)*(1/7)=1/56

answer: all the values are within because it has a pattern that repeats from -6 to 4.

good luck!
