Question

You have 26 cards, each labeled with a letter of the alphabet. What is the probability of drawing a card that is a vowel (excluding y)?

Answer 1

\(P(E)=\dfrac{ \text{# of outcomes that are included in E} }{ \text{total # of outcomes in E} }\)

Answer 2

So basically 26/5

Answer 3

yes

Answer 4

The event E is "draw a card with a vowel". How many outcomes are there for that?

The total number of outcomes in the sample space is the total number of cards.

Answer 5

probabilities are ALWAYS non-negative, and less than or equal to 1. Always, always, always.
