Question

Regina created a playlist on her cell

phone. The playlist includes 3 pop songs, hip-hop songs, and 1 blues song. Regina will randomly choose 2 songs, without repeating a song, to play through her new earbuds. What is the probability that Regina will choose a pop song first and a hip-hop song second?

Answer 1

Answer: a 5/24

Explanation:

3 + 5 + 1 = 9

First = Pop Song P = 3/9 = 1/3

Seconed = Hip Hop Song P2 = 5/9-1 = 5/8

So P = 1/3 x 5/8 = 5/24

So that makes A the correct answer
