suppose, do you have a bag of red blue and yellow marbles if the probability of picking a red marble is 1/6 and the probability of picking a yellow marble is 1/2 what is the probability of picking a blue marble?

To solve this problem, we need to know that vowels are A, E, I, O, U and Y, and all the other letters are consonants. Therefore, we need to count the number of vowels and consonants in the given set of letters.

Given set of letters: S, E, L, E, C, T, E, D

Number of vowels: 3 (E, E, and E)
Number of consonants: 5 (S, L, C, T, and D)

Total number of letters = 8

The probability of not selecting a consonant is equal to the probability of selecting a vowel.

Probability of selecting a vowel = Number of vowels / Total number of letters
Probability of selecting a vowel = 3 / 8

Expressing the probability as a fraction, decimal, and percentage:

Fraction: 3/8
Decimal: 0.375
Percentage: 37.5%

Therefore, the probability that Allen will not select a consonant is 3/8, 0.375, or 37.5%. Answer choice A matches this solution.

To determine the probability of picking a blue marble, we need to know the total number of marbles in the bag and how many marbles of each color are in the bag.

However, without that information, we cannot directly calculate the probability of picking a blue marble. We only know the probabilities of picking a red and yellow marble.

One approach could be to use the fact that the sum of probabilities for all possible outcomes should be equal to 1. Therefore, the probability of picking a blue marble can be found by subtracting the sum of the probabilities of picking a red and yellow marble from 1.

Let's denote the probability of picking a blue marble as P(B).

We are given that the probability of picking a red marble is 1/6, so we can represent it as P(R) = 1/6.

We are also given that the probability of picking a yellow marble is 1/2, so we can represent it as P(Y) = 1/2.

Using the fact that the sum of all probabilities is equal to 1, we have:

P(R) + P(Y) + P(B) = 1

Substituting the values we know, we get:

1/6 + 1/2 + P(B) = 1

Simplifying the equation, we get:

P(B) = 1 - (1/6 + 1/2)

P(B) = 1 - 2/3

P(B) = 1/3

Therefore, the probability of picking a blue marble is 1/3.
