one card is randomly selected from a shuffled standard deck of 52 cards and then a die is rolled. find the probility of obtaining
\n" ); document.write( "a. a red card and a 1= P(red)*P(1) = 1/4*1/6 = 1/24
\n" ); document.write( "because these are independent events.
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "b. a red card or a 1 = P(red) + P(1) = 1/4 + 1/6 = 10/24 = 5/12
\n" ); document.write( "because these are mutually exclusive events.
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "c. a picture card and a 1 = P(picture)*P(1) = 12/52 * 1/6 = 1/26
\n" ); document.write( "because these are independent events.
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "d. a picture card or a 1 = P(picture) or P(1) = 12/52 + 1/6 = 58/(52*6)= 29/156
\n" ); document.write( "because these are mutually exclusive events
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "e. a red picture card and a 1 = P(red picture)*P(1) = 6/52*1/6 = 1/52
\n" ); document.write( "independent events
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "f. a red picture card or a 1 = P(red pic)+P(1) = 6/52 + 1/6= 88/[52*6] = 11/39
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
