There are two urns: urn A and urn B. Each urn contains only red
balls and blue balls.It is known that urn A has 14 red balls and 11
blue balls, while urn B has a total number of 23 balls. In a random
experiment, an urn is first randomly chosen and then 2 balls are
drawn without replacement from the chosen urn.
Suppose that the probability of choosing urn A and the
probability of choosing urn B are both positive.Can the events"the
two chosen balls are red' and"urn A is chosen" be independent?
(explain with calculations)
