A bag contains n counters. one counter is blue and the rest are red. Two counters are taken at random from the bag. a) express, in terms of n, the probability that a counter of each colour is taken. Give your answer as a fraction. b) the probability that a counter of each colour is taken is 0.125. How many red counters are in the bag?

the correct answer is 5 6 and 7

the 3rd on is correct

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is:

the answer is:

to solve the problem, we need to remember the quotient of power property, it's defined by the following relation:

if we have a quotienf of powers that have the same base, we need to keep the same base and subtract the exponent of the denominator power to the exponent of the numerator power.

so, we are given the expression:

then, calculating we have:

hence, the answer is:

have a nice day!
