5. A candy dish contains 2 red (R) and 4 yellow (Y) candies. You close your eyes, select two candies from the dish (without replacement), and record their colors. Use general multiplication rule and special addition rule to find the following probabilities. a. The probability that the first selected candy will be red and the second selected candy will be yellow is b. The probability that two selected candies will be of different colors_ One is red, another one is yellow c. Probability that two selected candies will be of the same color_ Both are red or both are yellow Assuming that the event "The first selected candy will be red and the second selected candy will be yellow "is denoted by A, the event "Two selected candies will be of different colors" is denoted by B, and the event "Two selected candies will be of the same color" is denoted by C, show your work in finding P(A), P(B), and P(C) in the questions a, b, and c.
