Question

1. as a trial, you draw one marble out of this jar without looking:

blue
black
5 nice work!
2b what are the chances that you draw a marble that is not red?
impossible a unlikely
even chance c likely
certain e

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze marble types

From the jar, there are Blue and Black marbles (non - Red) and Red marbles? Wait, no—wait, the initial trial shows Blue and Black marbles. Wait, actually, if we are drawing a non - Red marble, and if the jar has Blue and Black (non - Red) marbles, but wait, the key is: if the jar has marbles that are not Red (like Blue, Black) and maybe Red? Wait, no, the question is "draw a marble that is not Red". But looking at the options, "Certain" would mean that every marble is non - Red. Wait, maybe the jar has only non - Red marbles? Wait, the first part of the problem (2) shows Blue and Black marbles (the buttons for Blue and Black are there). So if all marbles in the jar are non - Red (Blue, Black), then drawing a non - Red marble is certain.

Step2: Determine the probability description

If every marble in the jar is not Red, then the chance of drawing a non - Red marble is certain. So the correct option is E.

Answer:

E. Certain
