Given data

2 purple lipsticks,

3 red lipsticks and

3 pink lipsticks

The sample space s=(2,3,3)

The sample size= 8

1. the probability of taking a purple lipstick Pr(purple)=

2.the probability of taking a red lipstick Pr(red)=

probability of taking out a purple lipstick followed by the red lipstick is
