Answer:

We have 6 cards.

9 of hearts

5 of spades

6 of hearts

2 of spades

4 of hearts

7 of hearts.

A is the event where Anwar selects an even numbered card.

B is the event where she choses a heart.

we have 3 even cards (and two of them are hearts)

we have 4 hearts (2 of them are even)

The probability of event A is Pa = 3/6 = 1/2

the probability of event B is = Pb = 4/6 = 2/3

The probability of event A and Event B is the number of heart cards with even numbers, that are 2 divided the total number of cards:

Paandb = 2/6 = 1/3

the probabilty of A if we know that B is true:

P(AIB) = 2/4 = 1/2 (this is because we have 4 hearts, and we know that 2 of those 4 cards are even)

the probability of B if we know that A is true:

P(BIA) = 2/3 (this is because we have 3 even cards, and 2 of them are hearts)
