Probability of choosing an x-colored ball


There are ten balls in an urn. They are identical except for color. Five are red, four are blue, and one is yellow. You are to draw a ball from the urn, note its color, and set it aside. Then you are to draw another ball from the urn and note its color.

(a) Make a tree diagram to show all possible outcomes of the experiment.   

(b) Let P(xy) be the probability of choosing an x-colored ball on the first draw and a y-colored ball on the second draw. Compute the probability for each outcome of the experiment. (Enter your answers as fractions.)

P(RR) =
P(RB) =
P(RY) =
P(BR) =
P(BB) =
P(BY) =
P(YR) =
P(YB) =
