A bag contains 5 red balls and 4 green balls. A ball is taken at random, and then put back. A second ball is then taken from the bag. The results are independent because the first ball is put back before the second is taken out. What is the probability that: (a) both balls are the same color (b) the balls are of different colors (c) at least one of the balls is green
