. A bag contains 6 red and 3 black chips. One chip is selected, its color is recorded, and it is returned to the bag. This process is repeated until 5 chips have been selected. What is the probability that one red chip was selected?

The probability that one red chip was selected is 0.0053.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable X be defined as the number of red chips selected.

It is provided that the selections of the n = 5 chips are done with replacement.

This implies that the probability of selecting a red chip remains same for each trial, i.e. p = 6/9 = 2/3.

The color of the chip selected at nth draw is independent of the other selections.

The random variable X thus follows a binomial distribution with parameters n = 5 and p = 2/3.

The probability mass function of X is:

Compute the probability that one red chip was selected as follows:

Thus, the probability that one red chip was selected is 0.0053.

the central idea is that:

individuals should refuse to cooperate with institutions they believe unjust.

thoreau felt  that governments were more often agents of corruption than justice, even democracies, and that just because the majority feels a certain way does not make it just or correct in absolute terms. he uses the fact that slavery exists in our democracy to support this idea.

he goes on to say that, as a result, people should live true to their own internal laws regarding right and wrong, as a product of reflection and a moral life, rather than following every law that society imposes.
