Grade 10 Represent and Determine Probability CCSS: HSS-CP.B.7
- Eva is correct, because the probability of the two events must be added together, which will be higher than the probability of either event by itself since both of these events have a probability greater than zero.
- Eva is correct, since when using the addition rule of probability, one must always add the two probabilities (in this case choosing the five of clubs and then choosing any remaining club card), and then subtract the probability that both events occur.
- Jason is correct, because the probability of choosing the five of clubs AND any remaining club card is equal to the probability of choosing the five of clubs. Using the addition rule, these cancel out and one is left with the probability of choosing any remaining club card.
- Jason is correct, since the probability of choosing the five of clubs is so low, that it can be ignored.
