Draw two cards from a standard 52-card deck with replacement. Find the probability of getting at least one black card.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Probability of getting at least one black card = 3/4 or 0.75

Step by step solution

01

Basics 

A standard deck of 52 cards contains 26 red & 26 black cards. So, probability of getting a black or a red card in single draw is equal, ie 26/52 = 1/2 each.

With replacement means that the card first drawn is again put into the deck before the second draw.

02

Explanation & Solution 

As Probability of getting a red card = 26/52 = 1/2

With replacement, probability of getting second red card also = 26/52 = 1/2

  • Probability of getting at least one black card = 1 - Pr (Getting both red cards)

So, Pr (At least one black card) = 1 - ( 1/2 x 1/2 )

= 1 - 1/4

Hence, probability = 3/4

Answer these questions using probability rules. Do NOT use the contingency table. Three thousand fifty-nine cases of AIDS had been reported in Santa Clara County, CA, through a certain date. Those cases will be our population. Of those cases, 6.4% obtained the disease through heterosexual contact and 7.4% are female. Out of the females with the disease, 53.3% got the disease from heterosexual contact.

a. Find P(Person is female).

b. Find P(Person obtained the disease through heterosexual contact).

c. Find P(Person is female GIVEN person got the disease from heterosexual contact)

d. Construct a Venn diagram representing this situation. Make one group females and the other group heterosexual contact. Fill in all values as probabilities.
