先取走一支蓝笔,加入的是绿笔,因此第二次抽取时仍有10支笔,但蓝笔只剩4支。

(b)

思路
展开
按Lui取到的颜色分类。每一种情况下先更新红笔数量;取走一支再加入一支,第二次的总数仍为10。
答题过程

Write for Lui’s colour and for Mira obtaining red.
If Lui takes red, 2 red pens remain; otherwise, 3 remain. Adding a green pen restores the total number of pens to 10. Hence
(c)
解法一
思路
展开
条件是Mira取蓝或绿,分母可由(b)取补集。分子是Lui取红且Mira不取红,需要按取红后更新的笔数计算。

If Lui takes red, Mira has 8 non-red pens out of 10 to choose from. Therefore,
From (b),
Thus
