Find the probability of being dealt a full house. (Round your answer to six decimal places.)?

I'm assuming a 5-card hand being dealt from a standard 52-card deck, and that there are no wild cards.

A full house is made up of a 3-of-a-kind and a 2-pair, both of different values since a 5-of-a-kind is impossible without wild cards.

Suppose we fix both card values, say aces and 2s. We get a full house if we are dealt 2 aces and 3 2s, or 3 aces and 2 2s.

The number of ways of drawing 2 aces and 3 2s is

\dbinom42\dbinom43=24

and the number of ways of drawing 3 aces and 2 2s is the same,

\dbinom43\dbinom42=24

so that for any two card values involved, there are 2*24 = 48 ways of getting a full house.

Now, count how many ways there are of doing this for any two choices of card value. Of 13 possible values, we are picking 2, so the total number of ways of getting a full house for any 2 values is

2\dbinom{13}2\dbinom42\dbinom43=3744

The total number of hands that can be drawn is

\dbinom{52}5=2,598,960

Then the probability of getting a full house is

\dfrac{2\binom{13}2\binom42\binom43}{\binom{52}5}=\dfrac6{4165}\approx\boxed{0.001441}

Please help! 56 points. Greatly appreciated!

Answer:

The first thing you should do for this case is to draw the ordered pairs in the plane and join the points.

 The area you are looking for is the area of a rectangle plus the area of a triangle.

 Thus, the total area will be

 At = (8) * (4.5) + (1/2) * (4) * (2.5) = 41

 answer

 the area of the city is 41 units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

41 square miles If you draw the outline of the city, you'll realize that if you draw a line from point B to point D, that you can subdivide the city into a triangle and a trapezoid. After performing the division, you can then calculate the area of both polygons and the add their areas together. So first, let's deal with the trapezoid ABDE. The area of a trapezoid is the average of the length of the parallel sides multiplied by the height. The parallel sides are AB and DE. So: ((18-10)+(14-10))*(9-4.5)/2 =(9 + 4)*(4.5)/2 = 12*4.5/2 = 27 Now for the area of triangle BCD. The area of a triangle is 0.5*b*h where b is the base and h the height. I'll use BC as the base and the distance from BC to D as the height. So: (9-2)*(18-14)/2 = 7*4/2 = 14 And now to add the areas. 27 + 14 = 41 So the area of the city is 41 square miles. Note: The subdivision used is not the only possible subdivision, just one of the easier ones. I could have divided the city area into 3 triangles ABE, BDE, and BCD and solved it that way instead. It was just a happy coincidence that AB and DE were parallel and as such I was able to use trapezoid ABDE instead of the two triangles ABE and BDE.
