How many red cards are there in 52 playing card?

There are 26 red cards in a deck of cards, 13 of which are Hearts, the other 13 are Diamonds.

A coin is tossed twice if heads comes up either time you get 2 if heads does not come up you lose 4?

This is a good bet to take. Your expected payout is 0.5 each round of the 2 tosses. The possible outcomes from 2 tosses: HT, HH, TT, TH. The probability that heads comes up is 3 in 4 (.75). The probability that heads does not come up is 1 in 4 (.25). Your expected payout is: (2 * .75) + (-4 * .25) = 1.5 - 1 = 0.5

What is the probability of drawing a J or 2 or 6 from a deck of 52 cards using 3 chances?

Chance of 2, 6, or J on the first draw is (4/52+4/52+4/52) = 12/52 = 3/13 = 23.1%

Chance of 2, 6, or J on the second draw is (4/51+4/51+4/51) = 12/51, as long as the first draw did not produce the correct card. (1-3/13)*12/51 = 10*12/13*51 = 18.1%

Chance of 2, 6, or J on the third draw is (4/50+4/50+4/50) = 12/50 = 6/25, as long as the first two draws did not produce the correct card (58.8%)*.24 = 14.1%

Total probability = 55.3%.

How might two probabilities be added?

If A and B are two events then

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)

Where can one get hold of the Toss Across game?

The Toss Across game is available in many stores. Start by searching your local Walmart, Target or ToysRUs. If they do not have it, some cities have smaller game hobby shops that should have your product in stock, or at the very least, direct you to where to find it.

How do you write cursive p and b?

The cursive lowercase p starts from the preceding letter, goes right, then dips down well below the base line, and loops or retraces upward to the line again. It then continues in a loop to the right, back to the starting point at left. If another letter follows, a continuous line extends from the base to the right.

The cursive lowercase b starts up, forming a tall loop or retraced line, followed by a cup or bowl to the right, stopping at half height and forming a short flat line to the right, before dipping back to the base line to start the next letter.

(To see cursive letters written, see the video related links below.)

What is the probability of choosing king or jack?

If you select 45 cards without replacement from a regular deck of playing cards, the probability is 1.

For a single randomly selected card, the probability is 2/13.

What are the chances your boyfriend is gay when his identical twin brother is gay?

== == * In my opinion not much chance. Sometimes it's what people nurture as in they are born that way and sometimes its nature, this is them adapting it from society or starting to like the same sex. I am a twin, I'm bisexual, and I'm a girl. My brother is somewhat homophobic so he cant know about my sexuality. As you can see it's what we want and not because you're a twin and gay it doesn't mean the other one has to be one! nonsense.

== == * Little to none. Homosexuality is not genetic and he is dating (I'm assuming) you're a woman. == == * I believe personally it is genetic (some gays may learn to enjoy a same sex partner from puberty on without having gay tendencies to begin with.) Two of the most convincing studies have proved conclusively that sexual orientation in men has a genetic cause. An examination of twins by psychologist Michael Bailey of Northwestern University. Among identical twins, he found that if one was gay, the other had a 50 percent chance of also being gay. Among fraternal twins, who do not share the same DNA, there was only a 20 percent chance. To the person who asked this question don't jump to conclusions! There is also proof that one identical twin can be gay and the other is not. There are many studies going on with twins and the genetic factors re homosexuality. You should know your boyfriend enough to be candid with him and ask him straight out if he has ever felt as if he were gay like his brother. I have no doubt he will say a flat 'No' so take it as that! Gay men are not interested in women sexually (will often have many women as friends only.) * I am an Identical twin and I am gay. So I feel like I am the best person to answer this question. I personally believe I have been this way all my life and my brother is his own person and shares nothing other then a same look. Personalities are different even in twins so are preferences. I live in a dorm with my boyfriend and my brother lives downstairs and is visited by his girl friend. If he says he is not gay, he isn't. If you don't believe him, break up - no use being with someone you don't trust, and I doubt a gay person in a comfortable situation (gay brother) would date a woman. Only men who are ashamed or feel uneasy about being gay would date a women.

Probabilty of pulling out a card that is not a red odd card from a deck?

100% - (all the red odd cards / 52 cards)

100%

- (1/52 * (2red Aces, 2 red 3, 2 red 5, 2 red 7, 2 red 9, 2 red Jacks, 2 red Kings)

= 100%- 26.9% = 73.0769%

What is the probability that a family of 4 would have 3 boys and 1 girl?

There is no simple answer to the question because the children's genders are not independent events. They depend on the parents' ages and their genes.

However, if you assume that they are independent events then, given that the probability of a boy is approx 0.52, the probability of three boys and a girl is 0.2669.

Synchro motor and its function?

A Synchro Motor is a Elecrical motor consition out of a single-phase Inner/Rotor windings, and a Three-phase Outer/Stator windings. The Outer/Stator windings are connected Electricly in a Star formation. ... ie: The inner ends of each the three windings are connected to one another. And the outher ends will then be connected to another Synchro Motors outer ends. The Inner/Rotor windings are connected to a single-phase AC power supply. The Rotor Windings in turn transfer energy over to the Outer/Stator windings. The Stator Windings are 120 degrees appart. And therefore depending on the Rotation of the Inner/Rotor Windings the Outer/Stator Winding get a different magnatude of magnetic flux, transferring a different amout of current flow to each of the three Outer/Sator windings. That bring us to the use of a Synchro Motor: ... A Syncrhro Motor works in pairs of 2 or 3, and are used to transfer rotational oriantation from one Synchro motor to another. Depending on how the Synchro Motors are connected to one another you can mirror the rotation from the first motor to the second. For standard Synchronigation you would connect The 3 Outer/Stator windings as such (1-1) (2-2) & (3-3). To mirror the Rotation you could connect (1-2) (2-1) & (3-3). Remember I said you could have 3 Synchro motors... The Third is wired differently inside... it has 3 Inner/Rotor windings & 3 Outer/Stator windings. The Rotor & Stator winding are connected in a star formation. The third Synchromotor bring about a difference in rotation. You could add or subtract rotational oreantions. A = Synchro Motor 1 ...B = Synchro Motor 2 (with 3 Stator & 3 Rotor windings) ...C = Synchro Motor 3 A+B=C Or A-B=C Synchro motors are used in ships, for opening & clossing valves from the bridge to for instance the Engine room. A more advanced system of the synchro technology integrates with a Servo Motor, that in turn can controls the rudder of the ship. Other uses are in Analoge computers & Electronic Weapon Guidence Systems.

What is a 2001 penny that has tails on both sides but has been stamped on one side with a heads also?

You might have a flip-over double-strike which would bring several dollars from an error collector, but you should be able to see at least a trace of heads and tails on both sides. If the tails image that is on the heads side is reversed, it is possible that someone laid another coin on top of yours and hit it with a hammer. If that's what happened you just have a damaged coin. Someone familiar with minting errors would have to examine it to be sure.

If you roll a 1-5 number cube what is the probability you will get a 5?

Probability = number_of_ways_of_success / total_number_if_outcomes

As a cube has 6 faces and you have only specified that it has five numbers (1-5), one of those numbers must be repeated, thus the probability of rolling a 5 depends upon whether there is one or two sides bearing a 5:

If there is only 1 side bearing a 5, then it is 1/6

If there are 2 sides bearing a 5, then it is 2/6 = 1/3

If you meant a five sided solid, then there is no such regular solid and some face(s) would be biased to appear and it would depend upon which face has the 5.

However, an icosahedron has 20 faces and the numbers 1-5 could be repeated 4 times each, meaning that the probability of rolling a 5 would be 4/20 = 1/5.

If you had a regular pentagonal spinner, with each digit corresponding to an edge, then the probability of spinning a 5 would be 1/5.

If you mean a standard die: a cube with six sides numbers 1-6 (and the 1-5 was a typographical error), then the probability is 1/6.
