B. Five bowls are labeled 1,2,3,4,5. Bowl i contains i white and 5 − i black ping pong balls, for i = 1,2,3,4,5. A bowl is randomly selected, and 2 ping pong balls are selected from that bowl at random without replacement. Both selected balls were white. What is the probability they were selected from bowl 1? 2? 3? 4? 5?

Bowl A contains three red and two white chips, and bowl B contains four red and three white chips. A chip is drawn at random from bowl A and transferred to bowl B. Compute the probability of then drawing a red chip from bowl B. Let P(A)=0.3P(A)=0.3 and P(B)=0.6P(B)=0.6. Find P(A∪B)P(A∪B) when AA and BB are indepdenent. Let P(A)=0.3P(A)=0.3 and P(B)=0.6P(B)=0.6. Find P(A|B)P(A|B) when AA and BB are mutually exclusive.
