Step 1: Define events and probabilities for part 9.a).
Let GG be the event that the gold urn is selected.
Let SS be the event that the silver urn is selected.
Let RR be the event that a red ball is selected.

The die shows 6 for the gold urn, so P(G)=16P(G) = \frac{1}{6}.
Otherwise (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) for the silver urn, so P(S)=56P(S) = \frac{5}{6}.

Gold urn contains 3 red balls and 4 white balls, for a total of 7 balls.
The probability of selecting a red ball from the gold urn is $P(R|
