Why cant a negative fraction represent a probability?
Probability is a ratio of two counts: both of which MUST be positive. Their ratio cannot be negative.
The maximum likelihood estimate, possibly.
What your probability of getting a head in a single toss of a coin?
total outcome in single toss={H,T}
u want 1 head

What percent of the time will you get a 1 if you roll a die 60 times?
16.66... % of the time - if the die is fair. And the percentage is not affected by the number of times you roll it.
How can you draw five cards from a deck consisting of all diamonds?
P(5 cards of diamonds in a deck) = (13/52 * 12/51 * 11/50 * 10/49 * 9/48)
= 4.95 * 10^-4
What is one important consequence of reducing standard error of the mean?
Estimates of the mean are then more reliable.

What is the probability of getting one head if 3 coins are tossed?
3/8

That is the probability of getting EXACTLY 1H. The prob of getting one (or more) head is 7/8
Does adding stocks decrease a portfolios standard deviation and risk?
It depends on the standard deviation and risk of the new stock.
First, let's note that the probability of at least 1 green one, will be theprobability of 1 green one + probability of two green ones. We only have two green marbles so we need not look at probability of greater than2 green ones. Now, there are 14 marbles total. When you grab three, you want to know what is the chance 1 or 2 of the 3 is green. One way to look at it is to say mathematically that picking two marbles at once is the same as picking one marble, then picking another, without putting the first marble back. So the we can pick the first green marble in 2/14 ways. Now if we pick another marble there is only 1 green left, so the there is a 1/13 chance we will pick it. That means there is 12 in 13 that we don't And since we are picking 3 marbles, the odd the third one is green is 1/12 if the second one is not. SO the odds of it NOT being green are 11/12 So the odds of exactly 1 green is 2/14x12/13x 11/12 and the odds of 2 exactly two greens is 2/14x1/13x. Since there are only two greens, the chance that the third is green is 0, so we don't need to worry about that. (The odds the third one is not green is 1. So we could say we are multiplying by 1.) Add these together for the desired answer. (2/14 x 12/13 x 11/12)+(2/14 x 1 /13)= 11/91+1/91=12/91 Another methods works as well. There are 3C2=6 ways to pick 2 greens from 3 and we divide by 14C2=14x13x/2=6/91 since this is the number of ways of picking 2 greens from 14 total marbles Now to this we add 3C1/91=3/91 since this is the number of ways of picking 1 green from 3 divided by 91 as above. The sum is again 12/91 (This is about .131868 or 13 percent)
Algebra 1 help with probability?
Probability is simple. Probability means the number of favorable outcomes over the total amount of outcomes.
For example, if I had 15 marbles in a bag. 10 are yellow, and 5 are red. The probability of picking a yellow marble is 10/15, which simplifies to 2/3.
What is the probability of not drawing a black six from a deck of cards?
Probability of not drawing a black six from a deck of cards = 1 - probability of drawing a black 6 = 1 - 2/52 = 50/52 = 25/26.
Which is morehalf pint or 6 inches?
A half pint is a unit of volume. 6 inches is a unit of length. The two units are not comparable.
Why normal distribution curve does not touch each other?
A single curve cannot touch "each other" since "each other" implies two curves.
How do you calculate the confidence interval for a population mea?
It's a mystery. need detetive conan.
What is the probability of obtaining a sum of at least 6when rolling a pair of dice?
The best way to do this is to note that this is 1 minus the probability of obtaining a sum less than 6.
The probability of obtaining a 2 is 1/36 (both dice get 1)
The probability of obtaining a 3 is 1/18 (one dice gets 1, the other gets 2, or the other way around)
The probability of obtaining a 4 is 1/12 (both dice get 2, or one dice gets 1 and the other 3, or the other way around)
The probability of obtaining a 5 is 1/9 (one dice gets 2 and the other 3, or the other way around, or one dice gets 1 and the other 4, or the other way around)
Adding these probabilities up gives 5/18. 1 minus this is 13/18
Thus the probability of obtaining a sum of at least 6 when rolling a pair of dice is 13/18.
One and a half. But, since that is not possible, 1 or 2 will have to do.
