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.

Suddenly stopping birth control can cause you to ovulate right away because of the hormone change. Withdrawal is not a viable form of birth control, semen can still be present before ejaculation. So chances could actually be pretty high.

What are the odds of having twins if your mother had twins?
It sounds like you have a pretty good chance of having twins! Congrats!
Twins run majorly in my family t00! I really want a set of twins, I've only had one baby so far so it should be my next pregnancy that I get the twins! In my family its every second girl on my mom's side and on my dad's side too so I have a major chance of twins! they are always the second pregnancy, and always 1 boy and 1 girl! I'm not sure maybe we just drop eggs easy r something! I'm naming my twins Zara (pronounced Zar- uh) and Zachary (Zac 4 short). Oh yah and I was a twin!

A womens father is colorblind She marries a colorblind man Will there son or daughter be colorblind?
Colorblindness is an X-linked recessive disorder. This means girls (who have the sex chromosomes XX) must have a colorblind X from dad and a colorblind X from mom. Boys only need to have one colorblind X to be colorblind because they have sex chromosomes XY (and have only 1 X).
If the dad has it, he has the colorblind X. If the daughter has it, she must have gotten her mom's colorblind X. If the mom is colorblind, then every child they have will be colorblind. If the mom is not colorblind, then she must be a carrier - she must have 1 normal X and 1 colorblind X.
Mom is either colorblind (with 2 colorblind Xs) or she is a carrier. Dad is definitely colorblind.
What is an example of non normal distribution?
The uniform distribution.
A random variable X is said to have a [standard] uniform distribution over the interval [0, 1] if
Pr[a < X < b = (b- a) for 0 ≤ a ≤ b ≤ 1
and
Pr[X] = 0 elsewhere.
The probability of the variable being within a range is equal to the size of that range.
The discrete version of this is the probability distribution of the number shown in the throw of a die.
Pr[Number = n] = 1/6 for n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6
and 0 otherwise.

Anaximander
The Greek natural philosopher and astronomer Anaximander (ca. 610-ca. 546 B.C.) attempted to explain the origins of the universe through his theory of the apeiron.
Anaximander was a pre-Socratic Greek philosopher from Miletus. He belonged to the Milesian School and learned from his master Thales.

What does a spade tattoo mean?
1) When the Apex or point of the Spade points up in the reading it means a conclusion, an ending. Considered the Death Card, meaning the death of circumstances, not people, 90% of the time. Remember, with death, there is always a new beginning. Death in reading cards is a door offering a new beginning. 2) Apex pointing down: The card is telling you about someone or something at a distance, not in this location, usually quite far away.

Ace of spades tattoo symbolize?
It can mean different things to different people. I have a friend whose last name is Spaid and he got the ace of spades tattooed on his back. People get tattoos for different reasons for different meanings. ** Here's a more specific answer. The Ace of Spades is traditionally symbolic of two things, which themselves are often linked. Those two things are Metamorphosis and Death. To flip over the Ace of Spades in any kind of card reading is to get a warning of impending death - whether it be your own or someone linked to you. However - it doesn't always have to be a literal death - it could be a death of a certain self, or a phase of life, thus opening to path to a new existence or new identity. People who sport the Ace of Spades are, whether they know it or not, announcing that they welcome death as a means to a better existence, or simply, that they are not afraid of death and the changes it will bring. This is why the Ace of Spades is popular with soldiers. **
How many multiples of 3 are there between 1 and 1001 and show work?
I would do it like this though I'm sure there are other ways:
There are 10 multiples of 3 every 30 (3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24,27,30).
There are (1000/30)= 33 lots of 30 in 1000
Therefore there are (10 x 33)=330 multiples of 3 which brings us up to 990 (330x3 =990)
Then there are 3 more multiples of 3 993, 996,999
This makes the total 333 multiples of three between 1 and 1001

What Books were probably not written by Paul?
Of the Pauline epistles, the Pastorals are almost unanimously regarded by critical scholars as not written by Paul - 1 Timothy, 2 Timothy and Titus.
The majority of critical scholars also say that Ephesians, Colossians and 2 Thessalonians were not written by Paul.
Many liberal Christian scholars now accept only Romans, 1 Corinthians, 2 Corinthians, Philemon, Galatians, Philippians and 1 Thessalonians as genuine. However, A.Q. Morton has cast some doubt on 1 Thessalonians and Philippians, because a computer analysis shows that they do not share the same dictation or writing style as the others.
Prove that the complement of A and B are independent events?
first prove *: if A intersect B is independent, then A intersect B' is independent. (this is on wiki answers)
P(A' intersect B') = P(B')P(A'|B') by definition
= P(B')[1-P(A|B')] since 1 = P(A) + P(A')
= P(B')[1 - P(A)] from the first proof *
= P(B')P(A') since 1 = P(A) + P(A')
conclude with P(A' intersect B') = P(B')P(A') and is therefore independent by definition.
***note*** i am a student in my first semester of probability so this may be incorrect, but i used the first proof* so i figured i would proof this one to kinda "give back".
