Answer:

9/35

Explanation:

There are a total of 15 bulbs to choose from randomly. First a new bulb is chosen. Chance is 9/15 because 9 out of 15 are new.

Then there are only 14 bulbs left. Then a used bulb is chosen. Chance is 6/14 since 6 out of remaining 14 are used.

Total chance for this to happen is 9/15 * 6/14 = 54/210 = 9/35.
