Two cards are drawn from a well-shuffled standard deck of cards. Match each scenario to its probability. (in the attached file below).
First screenshot shows the pairs and the second shows the answers. Will medal or whatever :-)
1/169= 3rd scenario 1/442= 1st scenario 4/169= 4th scenario 1/52= 2nd scenario no promises tho
how many cards in total ?
As many cards that are in normal stack I guess....so 52? Not sure.
the reason i put the first scenario with 1/442 is because it have specific suite and specific number so there are less to have a chance to pull. second scenario i put with 1/52 because you have 8 cards you can pick then a chance to pick 8 cards as well. third scenario with 1/169 because you have not as great of a chance as the second scenario. you have a chance to pull 1 of 4 cards then 1 of 4 again. fourth scenario with 4/169 because you have a 1 of 13 cards to pick then you have a chance to pick 1 of 4 cards. this is why i may not be correct i did not use math statistics to solve it just logic kind of. also there are 52 cards in a deck
@reemii to the rescue with the answer...lol
I've been using common sense the entire year and it's done me okay. But my end date is Friday so these post tests are a big deal.
"Mutliply probabilities" Tile 1: (red ace, then some ace) no replacement. -> red ace: there are 2 among the 52 cards -> p1 = 2/52 -> some ace, no replacement (means some red ace is missing!!): there are 3 aces left, among 51. -> p2 = 3/51. Answer for Tile1 : (2/52)(3/51) = (1/26)(1/17) = 1/442.
Same reasoning for others. It is important to keep in mind that without replacement, the deck is modified before the second draw. With replacement, the deck is complete (52 cards).
Thank you both very much! :-))
Tile 2. (3 or 5, then 4 or 6) with replacement. -> 3 or 5: 2 cards among 52 -> p1 = 2/52 -> 4 or 6 (complete deck!!): 2 cards amogn 52-> p2 = 2/52 => answer: (2/52)(2/52) = 1/676... not in the options! omg ...
(8/52)(8/52)=(1/13)(1/13)=1/169 ???
haha! sorry, there are four 3's, 4's, 5's, and 6's....
@dinah_rose is right
Tile3. (king, then queen) replacement 4 kings in the deck -> 4/52 replacement, 4 queens inthe deck -> 4/52 => (4/52)(4/52) =1/169
nvm the second is 4/169
2/13 not 1/13
It's fine. I solved it. Thank you!!!!!! :-)))))
verify you understand by solving Tile4 ;-) if you want to
and if you do dont just say it is 1/52 because thats to obvious...if you do show the steps
I've already moved on in the course. I have a huge lack of time. Thank you guys.
i know the feeling im three months behind in my studies
