Urn A contains 5 green and 3 red balls, and Urn B contains 2 green and 6 red balls. One ball is drawn from Urn A and transferred to Urn B. Then one ball is drawn from Urn B and transferred to Urn A.

An urn contains three red balls, two blue balls and one yellow ball. Our experiment is to draw a ball from an urn, replace it, and draw another. Define a random variable δ: Ω → R by δ(ω) = 1 if you draw the same color twice in a row, and δ(ω) = 0 otherwise. What is the expected value of δ?
