I think, the theory that p(a) for the first time = p(a) for nth time is applicable only when the number of balls is greater than n where the questions is about nth position of the ball I'll just get to what I'm trying to say here: Balls available = 3 red, 2 blue P(The third ball picked up is blue) ...

Here are all the independent probabilities that would get us a good outcome (black on the 4th pick): P(BBBB) = 5/8 * 4/7 * 3/6 * 2/5 = 1/14 P(YBBB) = 3/8 * 5/7 * 4/6 * 3/5 = 3/28 Since (BYBB) and (BBYB) are also good outcomes, total number of ways to get 1 yellow with black on the 4th pick = 3 * 3/...

With Proposition 13. a 75,000 flat (11 years ago) --> $914 tax a 200,000 flat (now) --> $2000 Option B is too specific to be correct ...

Hi Divine Acclivity, I think I see the issue; you're interpreting the words "can be" to mean "must be." I read answer C to mean "The new R-Computer can be used with other computers", meaning that the R-Computer is compatible with other computers. This information doesn...

It is reasonable to conclude, therefore, as the manufacturer’s prospectus does, that the Regent will quickly establish itself...

That makes a lot of sense to me. Thank you for the explanation. Could you also please give a similar explanation to eliminate option D? (D) The deer ticks that were not infected as larvae can become infected as adults by feeding on deer on which infected deer ticks have fed. --> If the ticks can get...
