  6. 4.5 Probability and Counting Rules The counting rules can be combined with the probability rules in this chapter to solve many types of probability problems. By using the fundamental counting rule, the permutation rules, and the combination rule, you can compute the probability of outcomes of many experiments, such as getting a full house when 5 cards are dealt or selecting a committee of 3 women and 2 men from a club consisting of 10 women and 10 men. Bluman, Chapter 4

  8. Four Aces Make problem simpler! Find the probability of drawing four aces when five cards are drawn from a deck of cards. Bluman, Chapter 4

  11. Final answer and rounding OR 0.000018 Bluman, Chapter 4

  12. Four of a Kind The answer to the last problem multiplied by 13; since there are 13 four of a kind hands possible. Find the probability of getting four of a kind when five cards are drawn from a deck of cards. Bluman, Chapter 4

  14. Example 4-51 • A box contains 24 transistors, 4 of which are defective. If 4 are sold at random, find the following probabilities. • A.) Exactly 2 are defective. • B.) None is defective. • C.) All are defective. • D.) At least 1 is defective.

  15. Example 4-52: Committee Selection A store has 6 TV Graphic magazines and 8 Newstimemagazines on the counter. If two customers purchased a magazine, find the probability that one of each magazine was purchased. TV Graphic: One magazine of the 6 magazines Newstime: One magazine of the 8 magazines Total: Two magazines of the 14 magazines Bluman, Chapter 4

  18. Example 4-53: Combination Locks A combination lock consists of the 26 letters of the alphabet. If a 3-letter combination is needed, find the probability that the combination will consist of the letters ABC in that order. The same letter can be used more than once. (Note: A combination lock is really a permutation lock.) There are 26·26·26 = 17,576 possible combinations. The letters ABC in order create one combination. Bluman, Chapter 4
