A box of chocolates contains 5 milk chocolates, 4 dark chocolates, and 3 white chocolates. What is the probability that you randomly select a milk chocolate first, replace it, and then select a white chocolate? *

10.42% probability that you randomly select a milk chocolate first, replace it, and then select a white chocolate

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the chocolate is replaced, the first selection and the second are independent of each other.

Independent events:

If two events, A and B, are independent.

In this question:

Event A: Selecting a milk chocolate first.

Event B: Selecting a white chocolate.

5+4+3 = 12 chocolates. Of those, 5 are milk.

This means that

3 are white.

This means that

What is the probability that you randomly select a milk chocolate first, replace it, and then select a white chocolate?

10.42% probability that you randomly select a milk chocolate first, replace it, and then select a white chocolate

false

step-by-step explanation:

the reason i say this is because for a certain length of sides you can pick any two and the length is wither equal or greater than the third side and in this case it's not.

3 + 5 = 8

8 is smaller than 9 which is the third side.

hope this : )
