How many spades or kings in deck of 52 cards?
In a standard deck, there are 13 spades and 4 kings and 1 king of spades.
What is the z score for a raw score of 70?
There is not enough information to answer your question. To determine a Z-Score, the mean and standard deviation are also required.
What is the probability of getting a red marble out of a bag of twenty?
4
If the marbles are all red - 100%. You need to give the number of each different colored marble
What is the probability of winning if you bought 50 ticket and 700 were sold?
P(Winning) = 50/700 = 0.0714... ≈ 7.14 %
What does the square root of 3 equal to?
Why does the standard error become smaller simply by increasing the sample size?
Because of the Law of Large Numbers. According to that law, the observations tends towards the mean. This increases the concentration of observations nears the mean thereby reducing the variance or standard error.
What is the Difference between random and systematic sampling?
Random sampling is picking a subject at random. Systematic sampling is using a pattern to pick subjects, I.e. picking every third person.
What is the chance if you toss a pair of dice you get 6 for the sum?
Answer: 1/12 3+3
4+2
5+1
All the above equal six. There are 36 (6x6) different options so you get 3/36. 3/36 can be simplified into 1/12 (3/3 and 36/3). Therefore your answer is 1/12
The chance is five out of thirty-six or about 13.89%.
How are the mean and standard deviation affected by an outlier?
The mean is "pushed" in the direction of the outlier. The standard deviation increases.

The probability of obtaining 7 heads in eight flips of a coin is:
P(7H) = 8(1/2)8 = 0.03125 = 3.1%
What is the probability of getting a queen card in a deck of cards?
number of queen card = 4
number of cards in a deck of cards = 52
Probability of getting a queen card = 4/52 or 1/13
What sequence is most likely to result from flipping a fair coin 5 times?
Let x be the aleatory variable representing the number of heads appearing when
tossing a fair coin 5 times.
Using the 'Binomial Distribution': P(x) = 5Cx (1/2)5 , where 5Cx = 5!/[x!(5-x)!]
Then:
P(x=0) = (1/2)5 = 1/32
P(x=1) = 5(1/2)5 = 5/32
P(x=2) = 10(1/2)5 = 10/32
P(x=3) = 10(1/2)5 = 10/32
P(x=4) = 5(1/2)5 = 5/32
P(x=5) = (1/2)5 = 1/32
So the most likely combination of heads-tails to come out are; (3H,2T) and (2H,3T), with a probability of 10/32 (=5/16=0.3125=31.25%) either one.
For any one of these outcomes there are 10 different sequences, each of which has
a probability of happening of 1/32.
If one observes the list of results, it can be inferred that any head-tails sequence
that can be thought of in 5 tosses has the probability of turning out of 1/32.
What is the difference between the population mean and sample mean?
The population mean is the mean calculated over every member of the set of subjects being studied. It is usually not available and a survey is used to find an estimate for the population mean. The mean value of the variable in question, calculated from only the subjects included in the sample (or survey) is the sample mean. Provided some basic statistical requirements are met, the sample mean is a "good" estimate of the population mean.
What is the relationship between the mean and standard deviation in statistics?
The 'standard deviation' in statistics or probability is a measure of how spread out the numbers are. It mathematical terms, it is the square root of the mean of the squared deviations of all the numbers in the data set from the mean of that set.
It is approximately equal to the average deviation from the mean.
If you have a set of values with low standard deviation, it means that in general, most of the values are close to the mean. A high standard deviation means that the values in general, differ a lot from the mean.
The variance is the standard deviation squared. That is to say, the standard deviation is the square root of the variance. To calculate the variance, we simply take each number in the set and subtract it from the mean. Next square that value and do the same for each number in the set. Lastly, take the mean of all the squares. The mean of the squared deviation from the mean is the variance. The square root of the variance is the standard deviation.
If you take the following data series for example, the mean for all of them is '3'.
3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3 all the values are 3, they're the same as the mean. The standard deviation is zero. This is because the difference from the mean is zero in each case, and after squaring and then taking the mean, the variance is zero. Last, the square root of zero is zero so the standard deviation is zero. Of note is that since you are squaring the deviations from the mean, the variance and hence the standard deviation can never be negative.
1, 3, 3, 3, 3, 5 - most of the values are the same as the mean. This has a low standard deviation. In this case, the standard deviation is very small since most of the difference from the mean are small.
1, 1, 1, 5, 5, 5 - all the values are two higher or two lower than the mean. This series has the highest standard deviation.
How many permutations are there for the letters in the word LOLLIPOP?
LOLLIPOP = 8 letters
L=3
O=2
I=1
P=2
number of permutations = 8!/3!2!2!
= 8x7x6x5x4x3x2 / 3x2x2x2
= 40320 /24
= 1680
What is the probability of rolling a 4 on a 12 sided die?
If the faces on the 12 sided die are numbered from 1 to 12, then 1/12.
What is the probability of getting zero tails?
The probability of getting zero tails is 1/2. The probability of getting zero tails twice in a row is 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4. The probability of getting zero tails three times in a row is 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/8, etc... .
