17. Selecting a Card A card is selected at random from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. Find the probability of each event.
c. Randomly selecting a 9 or a face card
검증된 단계별 안내1
Step 1: Understand the problem. A standard deck of 52 playing cards consists of 4 suits (hearts, diamonds, clubs, spades), each containing 13 cards. The goal is to calculate the probability of randomly selecting either a 9 or a face card (Jack, Queen, King).
Step 2: Determine the total number of favorable outcomes. There are 4 nines in the deck (one for each suit) and 12 face cards (Jack, Queen, King, each appearing in all 4 suits). Add these together to find the total number of favorable outcomes: 4 (nines) + 12 (face cards) = 16.
Step 3: Recall the formula for probability. The probability of an event is given by the formula: . In this case, the total number of outcomes is the total number of cards in the deck, which is 52.
Step 4: Substitute the values into the formula. Use the favorable outcomes (16) and total outcomes (52) to calculate the probability: .
Step 5: Simplify the fraction if necessary. To express the probability in its simplest form, divide the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD). This step ensures the fraction is reduced to its lowest terms.

Probability
Probability is a measure of the likelihood that a particular event will occur, expressed as a number between 0 and 1. In the context of selecting a card from a deck, it quantifies how many favorable outcomes exist compared to the total number of possible outcomes. For example, if there are 4 nines and 12 face cards in a deck, the probability of selecting either is calculated by dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of cards.

Introduction to Probability
Favorable Outcomes
Favorable outcomes refer to the specific results that satisfy the conditions of the event being analyzed. In this case, the favorable outcomes for selecting a 9 or a face card include the 4 nines and the 12 face cards (Jack, Queen, King). Understanding how to identify and count these outcomes is crucial for calculating the overall probability of the event.

Total Outcomes
Total outcomes represent the complete set of possible results in a probability scenario. For a standard deck of 52 playing cards, the total outcomes are simply the total number of cards in the deck. This concept is essential for determining the probability, as it serves as the denominator in the probability formula, allowing for the comparison of favorable outcomes to the overall possibilities.

81. Genetics A Punnett square is a diagram that shows all possible gene combinations in a cross of parents whose genes are known. When two pink snapdragon flowers (RW) are crossed, there are four equally likely possible outcomes for the genetic makeup of the offspring: red (RR), pink (RW), pink (WR), and white (WW), as shown in the Punnett square at the left. When two pink snapdragons are crossed, what is the probability that the offspring will be (c) white?
