An urn contains 8 blue balls, 1 green and 1 white ball. Suppose you independently draw 11 balls, uniformly at random from the urn and with replacement. This means that each time you draw a ball, you put it back into the urn. Compute the probability that the 11th ball that you draw is a color that has not been seen before.

Suppose that there is a white urn containing two white balls and three red balls and there is a red urn containing two white balls and four red balls. An experiment consists of selecting at random a ball from the white urn and then (without replacing the first ball) selecting at random a ball from the urn having the color of the first ball. Find the probability that the second ball is red.
Suppose that there is a white urn containing three white balls and one red ball and there is a red urn containing two white balls and four red balls.

Find the probability that the second ball is red.
