Question

It is impossibleIt is impossible to get 6 jacks when selecting6 jacks when selecting cards from a shuffled deck. Express the indicated degree of likelihood as a probability value between 0 and 1 inclusive.

The probability is

Answer 1

Events that are impossible are defined to have a probability of 0. No chance! :)

Answer 2

The probability is: 0

Explanation:

Indicated degree of likelihood--

• It is the chances of an event to occur.

• It takes the value between 0 and 1 inclusive.

• The value is 0 if there is a surety that the event will not occur.

• and takes the value 1 if there is a certainty of the happening of an event.

Now, we know that there are 52 deck of cards.

Such that there are four suits:

Club , Spade , Diamond and Heart.

and there are three face cards in each suit: King , Queen and Jack.

This means that there are a total of 4 jacks in a deck of 52 playing cards.

Hence, it is impossible to get 6 jacks when selecting 6 jacks when selecting cards from a shuffled deck.

This means that the event could never occur.

Hence, the probability is: 0
