Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(i) `P(2` red balls `)=frac{7}{11} times frac{7}{11}`

`=frac{49}{121}`

(ii) `P(2` blue balls `)=frac{4}{11} times frac{4}{11}`

`=frac{16}{121}`

(iii ) P( one red ball and one blue ball )=P( blue ball followed by red ball )+P( red ball followed by blue ball ) `=frac{4}{11} times frac{7}{11}+frac{7}{11} times frac{4}{11}`

`=frac{28}{121}+frac{28}{121}`

`=frac{56}{121}`
