Given that the card is a diamond, you are guaranteed that the card is one of a set of 13 diamonds. One of those diamonds is a nine, the other 12 are not. Hence \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2. Given that the card is a black card, you are guaranteed that none of the cards is a heart. Therefore: 0\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3. Given that the card is not red, you are guaranteed that the card is black. There are thirteen spades one of which is a six and thirteen clubs one of which is a six. There are two possible successes out of a total of twenty-six possibilities, hence \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "John \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
