1. What is the probability of a Heart, given less than 7?
= P(heart AND <7)/P(<7) = 0/(20/52) = 0
---------------------------------------------
2. Are the events "King" and "less than 7" mutually exclusive? why or why not?
Yes because no card is a King and less than 7
-------------------------------------------
3. Are the events "Heart" and "less than 7" independent? why or why not? make sure you show this using the formula definition.
No because there are cards that are King and are Heart.
