Question

Determine weather randomly picking a blue card from a bag containing all blue cards is impossible, unlikely, as likely as not, likely, or certain. Then, tell wether the probability is 0, close to 0, 1/2, close to 1, 1

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is certain with probability equal to 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is a mathematical framework which helps us to analyze chance of the outcome in a particular experiment. The value of probability is given by the ratio of the possible outcomes favorable to a certain experiment to the total outcomes.

We say an event is certain when the probability is 1 and the probability is zero when the event is uncertain.

Here the experiment is picking a blue card from a bag containing all blue cards.

Possible outcomes are all the cards colored blue in the bag.

Total outcomes are also all the blue cards in the bag.

∴ The value of probability is 1 as the event is certain because if we pick a card from the bag containing only blue cards, it would certainly give us a blue card.
