Answer: D) the last one
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A) Pd = 13/28
B) Pd = 7/16
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
Drama = 2
Comedy = 1
Science fiction = 5
Total = 8
a) The probability of selectingat least one drama movie Pd;
Pd = 1 - Pd'
Without replacement;
Probability of not selecting a drama movie Pd' is;
Pd' = 6/8 × 5/7 = 15/28
Pd = 1 - 15/28
Pd = 13/28
b) with replacement;
Probability of not selecting a drama movie Pd' is;
Pd' = 6/8 × 6/8 = 9/16
Pd = 1 - 9/16
Pd = 7/16
Cards are drawn, one at a time, from a standard deck; each card is replaced before the next one is drawn. Let X be the number of draws necessary to get an ace. Find E(X) is given in the following way
Step-by-step explanation:
- From a standard deck of cards, one card is drawn. What is the probability that the card is black and a
jack? P(Black and Jack) P(Black) = 26/52 or ½ , P(Jack) is 4/52 or 1/13 so P(Black and Jack) = ½ * 1/13 = 1/26
- A standard deck of cards is shuffled and one card is drawn. Find the probability that the card is a queen
or an ace.
P(Q or A) = P(Q) = 4/52 or 1/13 + P(A) = 4/52 or 1/13 = 1/13 + 1/13 = 2/13
- WITHOUT REPLACEMENT: If you draw two cards from the deck without replacement, what is the probability that they will both be aces?
P(AA) = (4/52)(3/51) = 1/221.
- WITHOUT REPLACEMENT: What is the probability that the second card will be an ace if the first card is a king?
P(A|K) = 4/51 since there are four aces in the deck but only 51 cards left after the king has been removed.
- WITH REPLACEMENT: Find the probability of drawing three queens in a row, with replacement. We pick a card, write down what it is, then put it back in the deck and draw again. To find the P(QQQ), we find the
probability of drawing the first queen which is 4/52.
- The probability of drawing the second queen is also 4/52 and the third is 4/52.
- We multiply these three individual probabilities together to get P(QQQ) =
- P(Q)P(Q)P(Q) = (4/52)(4/52)(4/52) = .00004 which is very small but not impossible.
- Probability of getting a royal flush = P(10 and Jack and Queen and King and Ace of the same suit)
