A bag contains a mixture of 300 red and 75 yellow candies. If you choose one candy at random, what is the probability that it is yellow?

Respuesta :

Answer: A solid 4% chance of picking a yellow

brainliest plz

Step-by-step explanation: We first should combine 300 and 75 because those are the total values of the candies in the bag. After, we should divide the different candies by the total amount of them getting the numbers .8 for red and .2 for yellow. Since the question is that the yellow occurs but not the red and you can miss the bag you would want to calculate what the probability would be to have B happen but not A. The equation for that is:

(1 - P(A)) × P(B)  

where P(A)=.8 and P(B)=.2

plugging in all things it would be

(1-.8)*.2

which equals .04 or 4%
