Answers
I will assume that in each case, the first ball drawn is not returned.
prob(2 blue) = (12/35)(11/34) = ..
prob(2 yellow) = you do it
prob(red, then yellow) = (14/35)(9/34) = ...
prob(red, then yellow) = your turn again
prob(2 blue) = (12/35)(11/34) = ..
prob(2 yellow) = you do it
prob(red, then yellow) = (14/35)(9/34) = ...
prob(red, then yellow) = your turn again
