You were introduced to determining probable outcomes related to drawing cards from a 52-card deck. Using cards to demonstrate probability concepts is a classic approach to learning about dependent probability events. In this assignment, you are going to calculate the probabilities related to drawing cards from a standard deck.
Select three different five-card combinations or five-card hands from your favorite card game that utilizes a standard 52-card deck containing four suits (clubs, hearts, diamonds, and spades), with each suit containing 13 cards with numbers 2-10 and face cards ace, king, queen, and jack. Then, do the following:
• Using the concept of dependent probabilities, determine the odds that you would draw these hands (card combinations) directly from a deck of cards.
• Determine the probability that you would not draw these hands (card combinations) directly from a deck of cards.
• Think of another activity in life, besides playing cards, where the concepts of probability would be useful to the decision-making process and share it with the group.
Review the postings of your peers and respond to at least two of them. Consider commenting on the following:
• How do your peers' card probabilities compare to the probabilities that you determined for your card combinations?
• Do you think that knowledge of how to calculate probability would be useful for playing games of chance or for making decisions in other areas of life? Explain.
