One of two urns is chosen at random with one just as likely to be chosen as the other. Then a ball is withdrawn from the chosen urn. Urn 1 contains 5 white and 2 red balls, and urn 2 has 4 white and 3 red balls.
If a white ball is drawn, what is the probability that it came from urn 1?

Urn 1 contains 3 red and 6 blue balls, and urn 2 contains 4 red and 3 blue balls. The urns are equally likely to be chosen. a) If a blue ball is drawn, what is the probability that it came from urn 1? b) If a red ball is drawn, what is the probability that it came from urn 2?

Five white balls and two red balls are distributed between two urns A and B in such a way that urn A contains 2 white balls and 2 red balls and urn B contains 3 white balls. At each step, we draw one ball from each urn and place the ball drawn from urn A into urn B and conversely with the ball from urn B. Find the long run proportion of time that urn A will contain 4 white...

Consider 3 urns. The urn A contains 5 white balls and 10 red balls, the urn B contains 9 white balls and 6 red balls and the urn C contains 4 white balls and 9 red balls. A ball is selected from ballot box 1 and placed in ballot box 2, then one ball is taken from ballot box 2 and placed in ballot box 3. Finally, a ball is taken from ballot box 3. What is the probability that...

Need help with well-explained solution 1. Assume that there are two urns. The first urn contains 4 red balls, 3 blue balls, and 3 white balls. The second urn contains 2 red balls, 4 blue balls, and 4 white balls. You randomly select an urn and take two balls from the urn. The probability that you pick the first urn is 40%. What is the probability that (a) the two balls are red? (b) the second ball is blue? (c)...

5. (15 points) Four blue and four maize balls are distributed in two urns in such a way that each contains four balls. We say that the systern is in state i, i = (), 1, 2, 3, 4, if the first urn contains i maize balls. At each step, we draw one ba from each urn and place the ball drawn from the first urn into the second, and conversely with the ball from the second urn. Let Xn...
