Final answer:
The probability of selecting a white jellybean from its package the second time, given that a white jellybean is selected the first time, can be determined using conditional probability.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of selecting a white jellybean from its package the second time, given that a white jellybean is selected the first time, can be determined using the concept of conditional probability.
Let's denote the event of selecting a white jellybean on the first draw as W1. We are given that P(W1) = 1 (since a white jellybean is selected on the first draw). Now, let's denote the event of selecting a white jellybean on the second draw as W2.
The probability of selecting a white jellybean on the second draw, given that a white jellybean was selected on the first draw, can be calculated using the formula for conditional probability:
P(W2|W1) = P(W2 and W1) / P(W1)
Since we replaced the first jellybean after the first draw, the probability of selecting a white jellybean on the second draw, given that a white jellybean was selected on the first draw, remains the same. Therefore, P(W2|W1) = P(W2) = the probability of selecting a white jellybean from the package.
