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 is the chance of spinning a number greater than 1?
The answer depends on the shape of the spinner and the numbers on it.
What is the expirimental probibility of tossing heads ON A COIN?
on one coin, the probability of getting a head is 0.5, if there is no bias
What is the difference between probability and consequence?
Probability is the predictive chance that something will happen, such as the probability of heads coming up on a coin toss being 0.5.
Consequence, on the other hand, is the result of some outcome, not necessarily related in any way to probability, but it could be. For instance, you may have a coin toss at the beginning of a football game. That is based on probability. The consequence, though, is the determination of who kicks off first.
An example of non probabilistic consequence is the decision to swerve your car off of the road into a tree. The consequence of that action is that you will have a crash. Yes, its an extreme and unlikely example, but it shows that probability and consequence are two different things.
What is the probable cause of p0441 trouble code in an OBD2 system?
evap emmision system. purge solenoid not operating, or vacuum line broken between engine and charcoal cannister, near gas tank, underside of vehicle. solenoid may also be unplugge damaged, or engine computer could be defective.
On my 02 Intrepid it was the EVAP bleeder filter mounted just behind the fuel tank. I found this solution by checking the vacuum switch mounted on the carbon cannister. An answer I found on the justanswer website. Post copied included below.
Hello inspector 13, The set condition for this trouble code po441 has nothing to do with the oxygen sensor changing voltage when the purge valve opens up.
The Pcm gradually increases purge flow. During flow the PCM looks for the NVLD (natural vacuum leak detection) switch to close. If the PCM does not see the switch close at maxium flow an error is detected.
First pull up the lower cushion for the back seat, there is a wiring connector on the right side. We always check this first because we had a couple vehicle with corroded connections.
The problem we at Chrysler, are finding is the internal switch at the NVLD is not working properly and closing as it should.
This unit is located on the right side of the gas tank, and is part of the charcoal canister.
REMOVAL- Disconnect the negative battery cable.
- Remove fuel tank, refer to the Fuel Delivery section for Fuel Tank Removal.
- Disconnect the electrical connector from the NVLD assembly.
- Disconnect the hoses from the NVLD assembly
- Lift tab on NVLD assembly and twist the assembly counterclockwise and pull up to remove from EVAP canister
- Remove O-ring from EVAP canister .
What are the possible outcome numbers are they equally likely explain?
1/4 like a spinner has 4 colors on it 1 is colored blue the others are colored red.
What is the probability of drawing two kings in at blackjack from a single deck of cards?
The probability of drawing two kings from a single deck of cards is 4 in 52 times 3 in 51, or 12 in 2652, or 1 in 221, or about 0.004529.
Mean 266 and standard deviation is 16 what percentage of human pregnancies last between 250 and 282?
If G is a random variable representing the gestation period, an it is assumed to have a normal distribution with the given mean and standard deviation, then
Prob(250 < G < 282) = Prob(-1 < Z < 1) where Z has the standard normal distribution.
= 0.6827 = 68.3%
He is a boy who runs around Union Star RII that we don't know what to do with. There is also the possibility he is a pimp.
I tend to think he is a top secret ninja that loves unicorns and pudding
What is the set of possible outcomes for flipping a coin once?
Heads - ½
Tails - ½
There are two reasonable outcomes of flipping a coin. You could get heads or tails. Some might argue that the third outcome is that the coin will land on the edge.
What is the outcome for one card that is drawn from a standard deck of cards?
The outcome will depend on the random variable that you choose to define over the event space. It could be the face value and suit of the card, it could be the face value, it could be the suit, it could be red or black, it could be an honour or non-honour, odd or even, etc.
Does a 10 percent chance of rain mean that it will rain?
No, it means it might, with a probability of 0.1
The chance of picking a 2 is 4/52 since there are four twos. If you don't replace it then there are 51 cards and 4 sevens so the chance of picking the 7 is 4/51.
The chances of doing both things is
(4/52)(4/51)=16/2652 or 4/663 which is about .006
How many ways can the word Alabama be arranged?
The letters in the word can be arranged in
7!/4! = 210 ways if A and a are treated the same.
If A and a are considered different (so that, for example, Alabama is not alabAma), then there are 7!/3! = 840 ways.
What are the odds of rolling a seven with two dice fifty six times in succession?
The chance of throwing 7 with 2 dice is 1 in 6.
The chance of throwing 7 with 2 dice 56 times in a row is 1 in 656 ≈ 1 in 3.771 x 1043.
What is the probability of rolling an 11 with two dice?
You have 36 different possibilities (6 for the first die x 6 for the second die). Two of these are "favorable", giving you the desired result: both the combinations (6, 5) and (5, 6) work. Therefore, the probability is 2/36.
