What is a probability of drawing a club and a 7?
drawing a club
total club =13
P(Club)= 13/52
drawing a 7
total 7 = 4
P(7) = 4/52
P(a club and a 7) = P(Club) + P(7) as events are mutualy exculisve
P(a club and a 7) = 13/52+4/52
P(a club and a 7) = 17/52
If you roll a fair die what is the theoretical probability of getting a 5?
Since there are 6 numbers on a die (1-6), then the probability of rolling a 5 would be 1 out of 6.
What is the probability of having a girl versus having a boy?
The probability of having a girl versus a boy is 1/2 because there is two things you have a chance of getting and you can only get one or the other.
Haphazard sample
It can be.
Coin tosses are independent events. The probability of a head remains 1/2
Average number of arriving customers in 4 minute interval is 2.8 and poison distributed what is the probability that exactly six customer will arrive in a 4 minute interval?
If you roll two fair dice what is the probability you will roll a sum of nine?
You can roll (3,6), (4,5), (5,4), or (6,3). So that's four possibilities out of 36. So 4/36 or 1/9.
Every time you flip a coin it has a 50% chance of heads and a 50% chance of tails. Flipping a coin multiple times does not change that. Therefore the answer is 50%
What is the probability of rolling the same number when three number cubes are rolled?
The first roll doesn't matter for probability, it just sets the number to be rolled by the other two. So:
P(rolling the same number three times) = P(rolling a particular number)2 = (1/6)2 = 1/36
What is the definititon of a discrete random variable?
The discrete random variable almost always arises in connection with counting.
The probability of the event occurring.
Addition rule for probability of events A and B?
If they're disjoint events:
P(A and B) = P(A) + P(B)
Generally:
P(A and B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A|B)
The probability is the number of girls divided by the number of students, so 12/22, or 6/11
Mean and standard deviation of probability density function?
Suppose the probability density function is f(x), defined over a domain D
Then the mean is E(X) = x*f(x) integrated with respect to x over D.
Calculate E(X2) = x2*f(x) integrated with respect to x over D.
Then Variance(X) = E(X2) - [E(X)]2
and Standard Deviation = sqrt(Variance).
If you flip a coin 5 times what is the probability that the coin will land on heads all five times?
The probability that the coin lands on the heads ones: 1/2
Two times (1/2)^2 = 1/4
Five times (1/2)^5 = 1/32 (so 1 in 32 attempts)
n times (1/2)^n
What is an event that occurs because of a preceding event?
A dependent event. Or rather, a dependent event is one whose probability of occurrence is affected by previous events. For instance, drawing a card from a deck is affected by previous draws, if there's no replacement.
Sample space of tossing a coin 6 times?
{hhhhhh, hhhhht, hhhhth, hhhhtt, hhhthh, hhhtht, hhhtth, hhhttt, hhthhh, hhthht, hhthth, hhthtt, hhtthh, hhttht, hhttth, hhtttt, hthhhh, hthhht, hthhth, hthhtt, hththh, hththt, hthtth, hthttt, htthhh, htthht, htthth, htthtt, httthh, htttht, htttth, httttt, thhhhh, thhhht, thhhth, thhhtt, thhthh, thhtht, thhtth, thhttt, ththhh, ththht, ththth, ththtt, thtthh, thttht, thttth, thtttt, tthhhh, tthhht, tthhth, tthhtt, tththh, tththt, tthtth, tthttt, ttthhh, ttthht, ttthth, ttthtt, tttthh, ttttht, ttttth, tttttt}

This problem doesn't lead to a whole number solution. Are you sure you copied it correctly? Maybe you meant the ratio is 4 to 3. In that case:
red/blue = 4/3
blue/red = 3/4
blue = (3 * red) / 4 = (3 * 16) / 4 = 12 blue marbles
A fair die is rolled 36 times What is the standard deviation of the even number 2 4 or 6 outcomes?
Every roll of a fair die has a one in two chance of being even or odd.
