Question: Two ballpoint pens are selected at random from a box that contains 3 blue pens, 2 red pens, and 3 green pens. If X is the number of blue pens selected and Y is the number of red pens selected, find 235 (a) the joint probability function Ax, y), (b) P[(X, Y ) E A], where A is the region {(x, y)|x+y<1}.
