In an urn, there are 3 blue balls and 2 red balls. A ball is selected at random without replacement. Regardless of what color the first ball was, a blue ball is added to the urn (so there are a total of 5 balls in the urn now). Then a second ball is selected from the urn. a) What is the chance that the second ball selected from the urn is blue? b) Given that the second ball is blue,...

A ball is taken at random from an urn containing 2 red balls and 3 blue balls. If the ball is red a fair coin is tossed three times. If the ball is blue non-fair coin is tossed three times; for this second coin the probability of heads is .6. In either case we count the number of heads in the three tosses and call that number X. (a) Compute the conditional probability that X-2 if it is known that...
