Question 852752: I have the two answered but not sure if they are right.could you help
Two cards are drawn from a standard deck of cards. (The first card selected is not returned to the deck before the second card is drawn.) A characteristic of the first card is noted. Find the probabilities of the second card, given the information about the first card is provided.


10. P(black|black)
I have 25/51

11. P(nine|heart)
I have 12/51=4/17
Not sure if this problem is supposed to go with the top but
12. A single card is drawn from a standard deck. Find the P(jack|face card)

10. P(black|black) =
I have 25/51
Correct
---------------------------
11. P(nine|heart) = P(nine And heart)/P(heart) = (1/52)/(1/4) = 1/13
I have 12/51=4/17
Not sure if this problem is supposed to go with the top but
12. A single card is drawn from a standard deck. Find the P(jack|face card)
------
P(jack | face card) = P(jack AND face card)/P(face card) = (4/52)/(12/52) = 1/3
