The five letters of the word 'TIMES' are written on five cards, with one letter on each card. The five cards are shuffled and two of the cards are dealt face up in a line to form a word. Determine the probability that word so formed :
\n" ); document.write( "a)is the word 'IT'
\n" ); document.write( "# of ways to succeed: 1
\n" ); document.write( "# of possible outcomes: 5C2 = 10
\n" ); document.write( "Ans: 1/10
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "b)contains only vowels

\n" ); document.write( "Ans: 1/10
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "c)contains only consonants
\n" ); document.write( "# of ways to succeed: 3C2 = 3
\n" ); document.write( "# of possible outcomces: 5C2 = 10
