four cards numbered 1, 5, 8, and 9 are placed in a bag. A card is drawn at random and then replaced. Then a card is drawn at random again. What is the probability that both cards drawn have the number 9.

Respuesta :

Answer:

1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Four cards numbered (1, 5, 8,9)

Given the sample space S= 4

1.The first selection with replacement

Probability of picking a 9= 1/4

2. Second selection, probability of picking a 9= 1/4

Hence the probability that both cards drawn have the number 9.

Is = (1/4)*(1/4)= 1/16
