a bag has 7 red scraps, 3 orange scraps, and 5 speckled scraps. you randomly pull a scrap from the bag, keep it out, and then pull out another one.

what is the probability of getting a speckled and then not getting a orange? write answer as a fraction.

Answer :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

total scraps=7+3+5

Red  Orange   Speckeled

  7         3                 5

                               -1

   7                3            4

P1=5/15

[tex]P2(1~red~ or~ 1 ~speckeled)=\frac{7}{14} +\frac{4}{14} =\frac{11}{14} \\P=\frac{5}{15} \times \frac{11}{14} =\frac{11}{42}[/tex]
