\n" ); document.write( "d)The card drawn is a spade\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "What I've tried so far.
\n" ); document.write( "a)On this problem I'm not sure what kind of prob to use. wether the fraction or nCr. But the way I approached this problem I did prob of a jack of hearts is 1/52 since there is only one of that specific card. And the card is a red card is half of that since it's either black or red. so 1/26 is my guess.
\n" ); document.write( "However, for b), I am not sure how to get the answer there.

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If you just draw a card out of a deck, then yes the probability that it is the jack of hearts is . There is exactly 1 jack of hearts and there are 52 possibilities.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "But the first three givens change your denominator. There are only 26 red cards, 13 hearts, and 4 jacks, so , , and .\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The last given changes both numerator and denominator. There are 13 spades so your denominator goes to 13, but zero of the spades are the jack of hearts, hence -- guaranteed to lose. \r
