Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that you had a box of cards with 6 red suited cards and 4 black suited cards. Further suppose that the first card drawn was red and was not replaced, and the second card drawn was black

Since without replacement, we find I card red will not be replaced.

So for drawing second card, available cards would be 5 red and 4 black.

The probability of drawing the first (red) card is ______

= no of red cards/total cards

= [tex]\frac{6}{6+4} \\=0.60[/tex]

The probability of drawing the second (black) card is ______.

= no of black cards available/total cards avaialble

= [tex]\frac{4}{5+4} \\=0.4444[/tex]
