1) An urn contains 10 balls, 2 red, 5 blue, and 3 green balls. Take out 3 balls at a random, without replacement. You win $2 for each green ball you select and lose $3 for each red ball you select. Let the random variable X denote the amount you win, determine the probability mass function of X.

2) Each of the 60 students in a class belongs to exactly one of the three groups A,B, or C. The membership numbers for the 3 groups are as follows:

A: 15 students

B: 20 C: 25 First, Next,

a. b. c.

Urn 1 contains 10 red balls, 5 green balls and 12 orange. Inside Urn 2 there are 7 red, 13 green, and 20 orange balls. Flip a coin to choose the urn, so there is a 55% chance to heads, you pick urn 1. If you pick tails, you pick urn 2. Then pick a ball from one of the urns after you flip. If you choose an orange ball, pick again but do this only once. a) Draw a...

Urn A contains 5 green and 4 red balls, and Urn B contains 3 green and 6 red balls. One ball is drawn from Urn A and transferred to Urn B. Then one ball is drawn from Urn B and transferred to Urn A. Let X = the number of green balls in Urn A after this process. List the possible values for X and then find the entire probability distribution for X.
