Explain how probability is different for card games than for dice games or slot machines
Arada [10]

the probability is reliant on multiple factors. for example, if you were to play a game of dice and could win if you rolled a 4 or a 2, the probability of you winning is 2/6 because you have 2 numbers you would win on but 6 in total you could land on. for a card game, this would be different. in a deck of cards, there are on average 4 of each number and suit (not including king/queen/jack/joker) and 52 cards in total. because of the multiple outcomes, the probability is divided into 3 parts. 1 being you pulling a specific number out of all numbers available in one suit (1/10 not including king/queen/jack/joker), 2 being pulling a specific suit out of all suits available (1/4), and 3 being pulling a specific number AND suit out of all cards available (??/52)

In the context of this excerpt, how does power corrupt? Use evidence from this text, your own experience, and other art or liter
KengaRu [80]

The correct answer is the following.

Although there is no excerpt attached or another kind of reference, we can say that the question refers to the story of Frankenstein, written by English writer Mary Shelley in 1818.

In this story, power corrupts in that the monster tries to create revenge against Victor. The monster or the creature knows that it was created in such a way by Victor that it won't be able to fit into society. The creature can't control its hunger for killing people who are close to Victor.

That is why, when today people can control their actions it is said that "they cannot control the monster inside."
