Question

Suppose we have 2 buckets labeled A and B. Bucket A contains 7 red balls and 2 green balls. Bucket B contains 2 red balls and 10 green balls. 
a) We randomly select one ball at random from A and one ball at random from B. What is the probability that 2 red balls are selected? Answer in a fraction.
b) We randomly select one ball at random from A and one ball at random from B. What is the probability that 1 red ball and 1 green ball are selected?Answer in a fraction.

c) We select one ball at random. We are twice as likely to choose that ball fromA as we are to choose it from B. Given that is choose a green ball, what is the probability that the ball came from B? Answer in a fraction.
