QUESTION 16 \cdot 1 POINT Remember that a standard deck of cards has 52 cards of two colors: red and black. Each color has 26 cards in the deck. What is the probability that you will be dealt 3 cards of the same color, if you are dealt 3 cards in total? Express your answer as a decimal rounded to four decimal places. Provide your answer below: P \approx \boxed{ }

Step 1
This can be calculated using the combination formula, which is C(n, k) = n! / (k!(n-k)!), where n is the total number of items, k is the number of items to choose, and ! denotes the factorial. In this case, n = 52 (total cards) and k = 3 (cards to be drawn). So, Show more…

Find the probability using combinations 8. There are 52 cards in a standard deck. a. If you shuffle the deck, how many combinations of 5 cards are there? (1 point) b. In a standard deck of cards, there are 26 different red cards. How many possible combinations of 5 red cards are there from those 26 cards? (1 point) c. What is the probability that 5 red cards are drawn? (1 point) (Note: Below are the 26 different red cards in a standard deck)

As shown above, a classic deck of cards is made up of 52 cards: 26 are black and 26 are red. Each color is split into two suits of 13 cards each (clubs and spades are black, and hearts and diamonds are red). Each suit is split into 13 individual cards (Ace, 2-10, Jack, Queen, and King). If you select a card at random, what is the probability of getting: a) A 2 of Hearts? b) A Heart or Spade? c) A number smaller than 6 (counting the Ace as 1)?

Probability I Answer each of the following questions regarding probability. For the purposes of this worksheet assume the following • A coin always lands on either heads or tails • A deck of cards has 52 cards ◦ There are four suits (clubs, hearts, diamonds, and spades) each with 13 cards ◦ There are two colors (black and red) each with 26 cards Problems: 1. If I flip a fair coin, what is the chance of the coin coming up heads? 2. If I draw a playing card from a shuffled deck, what is the chance of the card being red? 3. If I flip two fair coins at the same time, what is the chance of the coins both comping up heads? 4. If I draw two playing cards at the same time from a shuffled deck, what is the chance of both cards being red? 5. Why are the answers to problems 1 and 2 the same but the answers to problems 3 and 4 different?
