Success is achieving something more than I could have ever imagine. Failure is when you stop trying and believing you can do it.

When looking at 2 possible events how do you calculate the probability?

are they dependent or independent? define success and failure for the 2 events. probability of success (EX: drawing a face card) = number of possible successes / total possible events. Multiply the two separate probabilities to get the probability that both occur.


Are the words 'success' and 'failure' concrete or abstract nouns?

Life certainly has its ups and downs. But 'success' and 'failure' are not physical objects we can perceive with our senses. Therefore, they are both abstract nouns.


What is a sum in probability?

The sum of the probability of success and the probability of failure had better equal 1.00 (100%) or an error has been committed.


The probability of success is determined by the probability of failure and vice versa?

Yes, but only if there are only two outcomes for an experiment: success and failure. If there are more than two outcomes possible, for example Win, Draw or Lose, the outcomes have to be grouped so that the assertion in the question remains valid. Also, note that in everyday use there is a positive connotation for the word "success". This is not the case in probability theory. If you want the probability of a person being killed by a lightning strike, then success requires thaa person being killed. I somehow don't think the person would consider that a "success".


Why would the words no limits help to define the word successful?

Success is all about going above and beyond all limitations to achieve a goal. By not having any limits, you are giving yourself a better chance at success. Hope this helps.
