14. There is a very large bucket of marbles on a table. The bucket is so large that two or three marbles drawn at random are independent of each other, 30% of the marbles are blue. Suppose I pick two marbles at random from the bucket What is the probability that both marbles are blue? A) 0.60 B) 60% C) 21% D) 9% 15. Florida has played a key role in early 2000's presidential elections. Voter registration records show that 41% of Florida voters are registered as Democrats and 37% as Republicans.
