Playing Cards. An ordinary deck of playing cards has 52 cards. There are four suits-spades, hearts, diamonds, and clubs- with 13 cards in each suit. Spades and clubs are black; hearts and diamonds are red. If one of these cards is selected at random, what is the probability that it is
(a). a spade? (b). red? (c). not a club?
Following are two probability histograms of binomial distributions. For each, specify whether the success probability is less than, equal to, or greater than 0.5.
In each of Exercises 5.167-5.172, we have provided the number of trials and success probability for Bernoulli trials. LetX denote the total number of successes. Determine the required probabilities by using
(a) the binomial probability formula, Formula 5.4 on page 236. Round your probability answers to three decimal places.
(b) TableVII in AppendixA. Compare your answer here to that in part (a).
