WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST Mike is giving roses to some children at a carnival. He has 7 red roses, 8 yellow roses, and 9 white roses. If Mike selects a rose randomly without looking, what is the probability that he will give a white rose to the first child and then a yellow rose to the second child? (5 points) 9 over 24 plus 8 over 23 equal to 399 over 552 9 over 24 multiplied by 8 over 23 equal to 72 over 552 9 over 24 multiplied by 8 over 24 equal to 72 over 576 9 over 24 plus 8 over 24 equal to 17 over 24

Mike is selecting one Rose and not putting it back. We want to multiply the probability of selecting a white rose out of the total by the probability of selecting a yellow rose out of the total minus the already selected one. We are multiplying because the probability is an and scenario.

7 + 8 + 9 = 24 total roses

9 / 24 x 8 / 23 = 72 / 552

Hope this helps!! :)
