Question

Jonathan has a bag that contains exactly one red marble (r), one yellow marble (y), and one green marble (g). He chooses a marble from the bag without looking. Without replacing that marble, he chooses a second marble from the bag without looking. Which outcomes would be included in the sample space for Jonathan’s experiment? Select three options.
yy
gr
gg
rg
yr

Answer 1

gr, rg, yr

Explanation: With no replacement you cannot draw the same color twice, so yy and gg are impossible. The possible ordered pairs of different colors include gr, rg, and yr (among others).
