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.

What does the 5 percent tornado probability from the spc typically mean?
It can vary considerably as the is a fair degree of uncertainty. Usually it will mean a few scattered and mostly weak tornado will occur. Tornadoes stronger than EF2 are probably unlikely, though there are exceptions.
This qualifies as a slight risk outlook.
What can geneticists use probability for?
Probability theory can be used to estimate the risks of genetic traits being passed down to the next generation.
Can independent events exist in reality?
Yes. Independent events can exist in reality. Dependent events means that one event has had an effect on the other. For instance, if we look at the probability of someone going to the shops, and the probability of them buying an apple, the latter is clearly dependent on the former. Independent events are simply events that don't have this connection. The probability of one does not influence or predict the probability of the other. For instance, if I studied the probability of you going to see a film on a particular day, and the probability of someone in China getting a hole in one in golf, these are very clearly independent events.
Using probability how do you Calculate your odds of being in a plane crash?
It is quite complicated.
First you need to get the accident rates for the airline on which you are planning to fly. One measure is the number of crashes per million kilometres or million hours of flying.
Next, calculate the distance or number of hours you will be flying. Then one measure of the probability is the ratio of the two corresponding values.
You could refine the calculation by adjusting for the aircraft type. Also, since most crashes happen at take-off or landing, you may want to consider which airports you are flying from and to, including any that you are transiting.
When two dice are rolled find the probability of getting a 6 or 7?
Probability that the sum is 6 = 5/36
Probability that the sum is 7 = 6/36
Is this correct the graph of a normal distribution is bell-shaped?
Roughly speaking, yes. However, bells do not extend asymptotically to infinity.
Can the value of the variance ever equal the value of the standard deviation?
Yes; when the variance is one.
The probability that exactly 4 out of 6 randomly selected vehicles will pass the test when the pass rate is 80% is approx 0.2458 (or nearly a quarter).
How do you remove rusted bolts from an old toilet that has ceramic bolt tops that can't be removed?
Bad news. I have found it impossible to remove the bolt caps without breaking them. They are mortared on. They do make plastic bolt caps in a lot of different colors.
What is the probability that a sum of 9 appears 13 times out of a 100 times rolled cube?
On a normal cube, the probability is 0.
If there are more than 1 cubes, the answer depends on how many are being rolled for each sum.
How does distribution of scores affect selection of statistical procedures?
There are two broad cases: either you know the distribution or you don't.
Distribution known: Procedures are known for many, many situations. In some cases, it's possible to transform given data to fit available procedures. In other situations, it might be necessary to create new procedures.
Distribution unknown: Often a procedure that was developed for known distributions has been shown to work for distributions that are only similar to the known distributions. Recourse may alternatively be had to the so-called nonparametric statistics, that make minimal assumptions about distributions.

When a dice is rolled what is the probability of getting an even number less than 6?
you would have a one third chance :0)

How many sets of numbers can you get from he numbers 4 5 6 7?

What is the probability of picking a card that was either red or black?
In a normal deck of cards, it is 1.
Is probability the basis of inferential statistics?
Yes.
In applying inferential statistical methods the assumption is made that at least some of the variation observed in the data is due to randomness and that the laws of probability can be applied to take this into account in drawing conclusions from the data.
15%? (My math sucks - I probably got that wrong).
What does a probability distribution with high variance indicates?
There are several things that will cause a large variance. One would be a large spread in the data; the other is the data may contain an outlier(s) that is causing it or a combination of both.
