In a large metropolitan area, the probabilities are 0.87, 0.36, 0.30 that a family (randomly chosen for a sample survey) owns a colour T.V., a black and white T.V. or both kinds of T.V. The probability that a family own either any one or both kinds of T.V. sets is (i) 0.87 (ii) 0.93 (iii) 0.85 (iv) 0.76

One urn contains two black balls (labelled B1 and B2) and one white ball. A second urn contains one black ball and two white balls (labelled W1 and W2). Suppose the following experiment is performed. One of the two urns is chosen at random. Next a ball is randomly chosen from the urn. Then a second ball is chosen at random from the same urn without replacing the first ball. Write the sample space showing aol possible outcomes. What is the probability that two black balls are chosen? What is the probability that two balls of opposite colour are chosen?
