The board game Clue uses a deck of 21 cards: 6 suspects, 6 weapons, and 9 rooms. Suppose you are about to draw 2 cards from this deck. There are 6 possible outcomes for the draw: 2 suspects, 2 weapons, 2 rooms, 1 suspect and 1 weapon, 1 suspect and 1 room, or 1 weapon and 1 room. What are the probabilities for each of these outcomes?
