2. A box contains ten marbles: two red, five green, and three blue. a. Consider an experiment that consists of taking one marble from the box then replacing it in the box and drawing a second marble from the box. What is the sample space? If, at all times, each marble in the box is equally likely to be selected, what is the probability of each point in the sample space? b. Repeat the previous experiment when the second marble is drawn without replacing the first marble.
