Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S be the sample space of an experiment and E is an event associated with the experiment.

Let n(S) and n(E) denote the number of element in S and E.

P(E) is the probability of an event E

The number of elements on the sample space ;

n(S) = n(r) + n(b) + n(g) = 10 + 20 + 30 = 60

Hence, the event of drawing 5chips from the box n(S) = C(60,5)

A) probability of drawing 5chips from the box which are all blue ;

P(E) = n(E) / n(S) = 20C5 x 40C0 / 60C5 = 0.0028

by combination method ; nCr = n!/r!(n - r)!

B) the probability of drawing the indicated chips at least 1 green ;

Application of the binomial formula comes in ; nCr x p^r x q^n-r

= P(E) = 1 - p(x <1) = 1 - po = 1 - 30C0 x 30C5 / 60C5

= 0.9739

C)  the probability of drawing the indicated chips at most 1 red;

P(E) = p(no red) + p(one red)

= 10C0 x 50C5 + 10C1 x 50C4 / 60C5

= 0.8096
