A bag of 100100 tulip bulbs purchased from a nursery contains 4040 red tulip​ bulbs, 4040 yellow tulip​ bulbs, and 2020 purple tulip bulbs. ​(a) What is the probability that a randomly selected tulip bulb is​ red? ​(b) What is the probability that a randomly selected tulip bulb is​ purple? ​(c) Interpret these two probabilities.

Respuesta :

Answer:

a) 4040/100100 = 202/5005

= 0.0404

b) 2020/100100 = 101/5005

= 0.0202

c) since no. of red tulips is double the no. of purple one, chances/probability of picking a red is also double
