Question

can someone check these for me? This is based out of a standard deck of 52 cards.

· a face card given the card is a not a club.
· a heart given the card is black.
· a Jack, given that the card is red.

my answers:
1. 9 out of 12 face cards not being a club, 9/12 = 3/4

2. cutting the deck in half, 12/26 reduces to 6/13

3. 1/26 chance of getting a red Jack

Answer 1

I forgot to say, this is out of probability

Answer 2

1)Question: (a face card given the card is a not a club) --> does this mean that the card drawn cannot be any type club or just not a "face" club?

2) P (a heart given the card is black) --> I don't think there are any black hearts in the deck. My working answer there is P(Black Heart) = 0/52 = 0.

3) P( red Jack) = 2/52 = 1/26. [There are 2 red Jacks in the deck, Jack of Diamonds and Jack of Hearts.]

Answer 3

ooops, i think i messed the whole question up, give me a sec

Answer 4

There are 13 clubs in the deck. I am asking if " (a face card given the card is a not a club) should say ( a face card given the card is not a face club card) or if the question is asking (a face card given the card is a not a club of any type.)

Answer 5

Any kind of face card given it isn't a club, my mistake.

Answer 6

"(a face card given the card is a not a club of any type.)" thats correct

Answer 7

P(Any kind of face card given it isn't a club) = 9/52. What do you think?

Answer 8

That seems correct to me. Non reducible but it can't apply if that is the right answer. I appreciate your assistance!
