There are 7 balls in a bag. They are identical except for color. 3 are red, 2 are white and 2 are blue. You are to draw 1 ball from the bag, note its color, and set it aside. Then you are to draw a second ball from the bag and note its color.

a. Make a tree diagram to show all possible outcomes of the experiment. Label the probability associated with each stage of the experiment on the appropriate branch.

Bag 1 contains 3 red balls and 7 green balls. Bag 2 contains 8 red balls and 4 green balls. Bag 3 contains 5 red balls and 11 green balls. Bag 1 is chosen twice as often as either Bag 2 or Bag 3 (which have the same probability of being chosen). After a bag is chosen, a ball is chosen at random from that bag. Calculate the probability that: a) a red ball is chosen b) a red ball...
