An ordinary deck of playing cards has 52 cards. Three are four suits_ spade heart , diamond and club with 13 card in each suit. Spade and clubs are black heart and diamond are red. One of these cards is selected at random. Let R denote the event that a red is chosen . Find the probability that a red card is chosen, and express your answer in probability that a red card is chosen and express your answer in probability natation
In Exercises 5.16-5.26, express your probability answers as a decimal rounded to three places.
Coin Tossing. A balanced dime is tossed three times. The possible outcomes can be represented as follows.

Here, for example. HHT means that the first two tosses come up heads and the third tails. Find the probability that
(a) exactly two of the three tosses come up heads.
(b) the last two tosses come up tails.
(c) all three tosses come up the same.
(d) the second toss comes up heads.
A and B are events such that . Find.
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).
In Exercises 5.16-5.26, express your probability answers as a decimal rounded to three places.
Preeclampsia. Preeclampsia is a medical condition characterized by high blood pressure and protein in the urine of a pregnant woman. It is a serious condition that can be life-threatening to the mother and child. In the article "Women's Experiences Preeclampsia: Australian Action on Preeclampsia Survey of Wom and Their Confidants" (Journal of Pregnancy,Vol. 2011, Issue 1, Article ID 375653), C. East et al. examined the experiences of 68 women with preeclampsia. The following table provides a frequency distribution of instances of prenatal or infant death for infants of women with preeclampsia.

Suppose that one of these women with preeclampsia is randomly selected. Find the probability that the child of the woman selected
(a) died.
(b). died one week to six months after birth.
(c). lived at least six weeks.
