00:01
We are looking at a standard deck of cards with three events.
00:05
A, we select a face card, which is a jack, a queen or a king.
00:13
B, we select a king.
00:16
C, we select a heart.
00:22
And we don't want to use the conditional probability more here.
00:26
Okay.
00:27
So for part a, the probability of selecting a king.
00:31
So we're going to look at how many out of the 52 cards, meet our criteria.
00:39
How many kings are there? well, there are four kings, one from each suit, so that is four out of 52, which is, as a probability, and 0 .0769.
00:59
Part b, b given a, we know that a jack, a queen, or a king has been selected.
01:07
What is the probability it is a king? so there are 12 of these cards.
01:13
A third of them are kings, a third are queens, a third are jacks.
01:17
You're equally likely to get each of these.
01:19
So, probability it was a king is one in three.
01:27
Jacks, queens, and kings are equally likely.
01:35
So if you know you have one of these, the probability it was a king is one in three.
01:41
Next, the probability of selecting a king, given you selected a heart.
01:47
Well, that is one in 13.
01:49
There are 13 hearts, one of them is a king.
01:52
More generally, one in 13 of all the cards is a king.
01:57
It doesn't matter if it's hearts or not.
01:59
These are independence.
02:05
Whether or not a heart was selected does not influence the probability of a king being selected.
02:11
What is the probability of getting a king, given you did not get a face card? well, if you didn't get a face card, you cannot possibly.
02:18
Have a kink.
02:28
I'll be a king.
02:33
Part e.
02:35
The probability of a, getting one of these.
02:38
So these represent three from each suit...
