Five cards are randomly selected from a standard deck. Let A be the event that all five selected cards are the same suit. Using probability rules, P(A) can be computed to be 0.002 . Find the probability that all the cards are not the same suit.

Question 2

If events A and B are defined on a sample space, with P(A) = 0.5 and P(A and B) = 0.8, then the probability that event B will occur given that event A has already occurred is
 a. 0.80
  b. 0.50
  c. 0.30
  d. impossible to find P(B  A)
