Answer: [tex]\dfrac{76}{89}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The pool of rats from which the researcher is drawing participants is composed of the following:
23 male albino rats
21 male spotted rats
35 female albino rats
11 female spotted rats
Total rats = 23+21+35+11 =90
[tex]P(male\ albino)=\dfrac{23}{90}[/tex]
After drawing first rat , total rats remained = 89
[tex]P(\text{either a female albino rat or a male spotted rat})=\dfrac{35+21}{89}=\dfrac{76}{89}[/tex]
The probability of choosing a male albino rat and then either a female albino rat or a male spotted rat = [tex]\dfrac{76}{89}[/tex]
