To get the probability of m independent events you multiply the individual probability of each event. In this case we have m independent events, each one with the same probability, therefore:

$p^{m}$

$0.8^{20} = 1.15\%$

This is a particlar scenario of binomial distribution problem. So the binomial distribution questions are about the number of success of m independent events, where every individual event has the same p probability. In the question we have 20 events and each event has a probability of 80%. The binomial distribution formula is:

$\binom{n}{k} * p^{k} * (1-p)^{n-k}$

n is the number of events

k is the number of success

p is the probability of each individual event

$\binom{n}{k}$ is the binomial coefficient

the binomial coefficient allows to find the subsets of k elements in a set of n elements. In this case there is only one subset possible since the only way to get 20 of 20 correct questions is to getting right all questions (for getting 19 of 20 questions there are many ways, for example getting the first question wrong and all the other questions right, or getting second questions wrong and all the other questions right, etc).

$\binom{n}{k} = \frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}$

therefore, for this questions we have:

$\frac{20!}{20!(20-20)!} * 0.8^{20} * (1-0.8)^{0} = 1.15\%$

Two cards are drawn with replacement, one after the other, and the outcomes recorded. What is the probability that at least one

babymother [125]

Answer:

The probability is 0.231

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating the probability that out of two cards drawn with replacement from a pack of cards , at least one of the two is a face card.

In a standard pack of cards, there are 52 cards.

Now let’s calculate the number of face cards we have.

There are 12 face cards in a pack of cards. There are 4 of each of Jack, Queen or King

The probability of drawing a face card is 12/52 = 3/13

Now, we want to calculate the probability of at least one of the cards drawn are face cards.

Mathematically, what we are needing to calculate is

Probability of drawing a single face card or probability of the two being a face card

Now let’s calculate.

The probability of the first card drawn being a face card is 3/13. The probability of the second card not being a face card will be 1-3/13 = 10/13

The joint probability under this first set of condition will be 3/13 * 10/13 = 30/169

Now, for the second condition, here we are considering that both cards drawn are face cards. What we have is 3/13 * 3/13 = 9/169

Now in probabilities, whenever we are having the statement or, we add the probabilities together

Thus, the probability here would be 30/169 + 9/169 = 39/169 = 3/13

In decimal this will be 0.231
