To solve the problem, we need to find the probability of choosing a black ball from the two bags based on the outcome of a die throw. Let's break down the solution step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the contents of the bags - **Bag 1**: 3 black balls and 4 white balls (Total = 7 balls) - **Bag 2**: 4 black balls and 3 white balls (Total = 7 balls) ### Step 2: Determine the probabilities of choosing each bag based on the die throw - The die has 6 faces. If it shows 1 or 3, we choose from Bag 1. If it shows 2, 4, 5, or 6, we choose from Bag 2. ...
