**Problem: Probability with Tulip Bulbs**A bag of 32 tulip bulbs contains 14 red tulip bulbs, 8 yellow tulip bulbs, and 10 purple tulip bulbs. Suppose two tulip bulbs are randomly selected without replacement from the bag.- (a) What is the probability that the two randomly selected tulip bulbs are both red?- (b) What is the probability that the first bulb selected is red and the second yellow?- (c) What is the probability that the first bulb selected is yellow and the second red?- (d) What is the probability that one bulb is red and the other yellow?**Solution Steps**(a) *The probability that both bulbs are red is* [ ]. (*Round to three decimal places as needed.*)--- **Explanation:**This problem involves calculating the probability of drawing certain combinations of tulip bulbs from a bag without replacement.
