Probability

The probability of a certain event is a number expressing the likelihood that a specific event will occur, expressed as the ratio of the number of actual occurrences to the number of possible occurrences. In mathematics, it is a measure of how often an event will happen and is the basis of statistics.

Two cards are dealt one after another from a shuffled 52 card deck what is the correct probability of drawing two diamond cards?

In a single throw of two dice what is the probabiliy of obtaining a total of at least 10 and a total less than 10?

There are 36 permutations of two dice, with totals ranging from 2 to 12. Of those, only 6 permutations, 4-6, 5-5, 5-6, 6-4, 6-5, and 6-6 are greater than or equal to 10. The odds, then, of throwing 10 or higher is 6 in 36, or 1 in 6. The odds of throwing less than 10 is 30 in 36 or 5 in 6.

Probability of rolling 2 when rolling die 1200 times?

Prob(Rolling 2 when rolling 1200 times) = 1 - Prob(not rolling 2 when rolling 1200 times)

= 1 - (5/6)1200 = 1 [accurate to 95 decimal places]

That is, it is virtually a certainty.

Yes it is. That is actually true for all random vars, assuming the covariance of the two random vars is zero (they are uncorrelated).

Drawing a club from a deck of cards?

There is a 13 in 52, or 1 in 4, or 0.25 probability of drawing a club from a standard deck of 52 cards.

What is the probability density function the mean and the variance Let the moments of a X be defined by EX equals 0.8?

If E(x) = 0.8, then the mean of the distribution is 0.8. You have not provided enough information to completely answer this question.

In probability is heads and tails the same as tails and heads?

Yes.

unless your a hydra, in which case they should be reversed and translated into greek for calarity.

Using 2 dice is the most likely number to roll?

There are 21 possible combinations of 2 dice. The total with the most possible combinations is 7, which has three. (6+1,5+2,4+3)

This is not right. By this logic 6 and 8 have equal chances of being rolled as I can roll a six through the numbers, 5-1, 4-2, 3-3. When counting the probability of a number to be rolled you have to assume the dice do not care the order in which they are rolled. That is to say, a roll of 5-2, and 2-5 are NOT the same. It is for this reason we find that 7 truly has many more ways a being rolled. 2-5, 5-2, 6-1, 1-6, 3-4, 4-3. While both 6 and 8 have less because one of their dice rolls cannot be counted twice the double roll. For six this is the 3-3 roll, and for eight its the 4-4 roll. That is why 7 is the most common roll on two dice.

If a die is rolled once what is the probability of rolling a number between and including one and six?

The probability is 1. It is a certainty that you will roll a number between and including one and six. The probability of rolling each individual number is 1/6.

In a standard deck of 52 playing cards what is the probability of drawing a king of clubs on one draw?

Likelihood is 1/52 or approximately 1.9%.

This is based on: (1) a standard deck has 52 cards, and (2) a standard deck has only one king of clubs.

So the chance of drawing that one card out of all 52 cards, on one try is: 1 divided by 52.
