an urn contains two blue balls (denoted b1 and b2) and three white balls (denoted w1,w2, and w3). one ball is drawn, its color is recorded, and it is replaced in the urn. then another ball is drawn and its color is recorded. a. let b1w2 denote the outcome that the first ball drawn is b1 and the second ball drawn is w2. because the first ball is replaced before the second ball is drawn, the outcomes of the experiment are equally likely. the total number of possible outcomes of the experiment is b. consider the event that the first ball that is drawn is blue. what is the probability of the event? probability
