Note: You have 20 minutes to solve this question

In a bag of ten balls, three are red and seven are green. Two balls are drawn out
at random without replacement.
A represents the event that the second drawn ball is red and B represents the
event that the first drawn ball is red

Find:
(a) the probability of choosing 2 red balls.
(b) the probability of choosing 2 balls that are the same color.
(c) the probability that the second ball is red given that the first ball is red.
(d) the probability that the first ball is red given that the first ball is green.
(e) the probability that A and B occur given that A or B occur.
(f) If event C is subset of A, what is the probability of A given that C occurs.
(g) Are A and B collectively exhaustive or mutually exclusive.
