उत्तर
\[\text{ It is given that the urn contains 7 red and 4 black balls.}\]
\[\left( i \right) P\left( 2 \text{ red balls } \right) = \frac{7}{11} \times \frac{7}{11}\]
\[ = \frac{49}{121}\]
\[\left( ii \right) P\left( 2 \text{ blue balls } \right) = \frac{4}{11} \times \frac{4}{11}\]
\[ = \frac{16}{121}\]
\[\left( iii \right) P\left( \text{ one red ball and one blue ball} \right) = P\left( \text{ blue ball followed by red ball }\right) + P\left( \text{ red ball followed by blue ball} \right)\]
\[ = \frac{4}{11} \times \frac{7}{11} + \frac{7}{11} \times \frac{4}{11}\]
\[ = \frac{28}{121} + \frac{28}{121}\]
\[ = \frac{56}{121}\]
