QUESTION 9Suppose a box contains 20 marbles, 6 are red, 5 are blue, and 9 are yellow. Find the requested probabilities. Leave your answer as anunsimplified fraction.a. If two marbles are selected with replacement, what is the probability that one is red and the other is yellow? (hint: order is notspecific so you could choose a red then yellow or yellow then red).b. If two marbles are selected without replacement, what is the probability that one is red and the other is yellow?c. If 5 marbles are selected without replacement, what is the probability that they are all yellow?
