Douglas has a box with 49 paper clips. Of the paper clips, 15 are yellow, 9 are
red, 6 are blue, 11 are orange and 8
are green. Douglas randomly picks 2
paper clips from the box.

If the first paper clip is red, what is the probability that the second paper clip is blue?

6/48 is the likely possibility that he will pull out a blue one.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you will look at is how many blue there is and in this case there is 6. All you have to do (if it didn't already) is add up all of the paperclips and put the blue total number to get your answer. So if there was 49 but he drew out one to make it 48.  So the answer is 6/48

the volume is the product of the area of the base, 3x(3x+4), and the height, 3x-1
