Blackjack, or twenty-one as it is frequently called, is a popular gambling game played in Las Vegas casinos. A player is dealt two cards. Face cards (jacks, queens, and kings) and tens have a point value of 10. Aces have a point value of 1 or 11. A 52-card deck contains 16 cards with a point value of 10 (jacks, queens, kings, and tens) and four aces.

a. What is the probability that both cards dealt are aces or 10-point cards (to 4 decimals)?

b. What is the probability that both of the cards are aces (to 4 decimals)?

c. What is the probability that both of the cards have a point value of 10 (to 4 decimals)?

d. A blackjack is a 10-point card and an ace for a value of 21. Use your answers to parts (a), (b), and (c) to determine the probability that a player is dealt blackjack (to 4 decimals). (Hint: Part (d) is not a hypergeometric problem. Develop your own logical relationship as to how the hypergeometric probabilities from parts (a), (b), and (c) can be combined to answer this question.)

a, 0.1433

b. 0.0045

c. 0.0905

d. 0.0483

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the formula for hypergeometric probability is:

          (r) (N - r)

          (x) (n - x)

f (x) =

               (N)

               (n)

where r is "the number of individuals that y x value that the variable takes.

We have that the population size is 52. N = 52

The number of draws is equal to 2. n = 2

Now, knowing this we solve each one:

a. In this case the values are as follows: r = 20; x = 2

          (20) (52-20)

          (2) (2 - 2)

f (x) = = 95/663 = 0.1433

               (52)

               ( 2 )

b. In this case the values are as follows: r = 4; x = 2

          (4) (52-4)

          (2) (2 - 2)

f (x) = = 1/221 = 0.0045

               (52)

               ( 2 )

c. In this case the values are as follows: r = 16; x = 2

          (16) (52-16)

          (2) (2 - 2)

f (x) = = 20/221 = 0.0905

               (52)

               ( 2 )

d. The probability of blackjack would come being in relation to a, b, c

That is to say:

p (blackjack) = a - b - c

Replacing:

p (blackjack) = 0.1433 - 0.0045 - 0.0905 = 0.0483

60

step-by-step explanation:

every triangle measures a total of 120 degrees. you have to find angle c. we know that isosceles triangles angles are equal. 60 degrees plus 60 degrees gives you 120.
