Answer:
a. 9
b. 4/9 or 0.444
Step-by-step explanation:
R=red card={R1,R2,R3,R4,R5}
E=even card={R2,R4,P2,P4}
n(R)=5
n(E)=4
a.
There 5 red and 4 purple card so, the sample space would be
Sample space=S={R1,R2,R3,R4,R5,P1,P2,P3,P4}
number of elements in sample space=n(S)=9
So, the number of elements in the sample space are 9.
b.
P(E)=n(E)/n(S)
P(E)=4/9 or 0.444
Thus, the probability of an even numbered card is 0.444.
