HSPA Practice – Slide 4 Consider the probability of choosing one card from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. #1) What is the probability of choosing a “ 10”? #2) What is the probability of choosing a “ 10 of hearts”? #3) What is the probability of choosing a “ 4” or “ 5”?

HSPA Practice – Slide 5 Pick two cards from a standard deck of 52 playing cards without replacement (i. e. , do not replace the cards). #1) What is the probability of getting a “ 4” on the first pick and a “ 5” on the second pick? #2) What is the probability of getting an “ 8” on the first pick and another “ 8” on the second pick? #3) What is the probability of picking two cards and ending up with a “ 9 of spades” and a red card?

HSPA Practice – Slide 6 20 i. Pod Nanos were shipped in a box to the Apple Store. Some are red, some are blue, and the rest are black. Use the following statements to determine the number of i. Pod Nanos of a particular color. #1) Probability of pulling out a blue i. Pod Nano is 0. 20. What is the number of blue i. Pod Nanos? #2) Probability of pulling out a red i. Pod Nano is 0. 50. What is the number of red i. Pod Nanos?

HSPA Practice – Slide 7 #1) In how many ways can four students be arranged in a row? #2) If five students are running for the positions of president, vice president, and treasurer in student government, what are the total possible outcomes of the election?

HSPA Practice – Slide 8 A committee consists of three people. There are 5 candidates. In how many ways can the committee be chosen? Order does not matter, so this problem is a combination.

HSPA Practice – Slide 9 A committee is composed of six Democrats and five Republicans. Three of the Democrats are women, and three of the Republicans are women. If a woman is chosen for chairperson, what is the probability that she is a Republican? Since there are women in both political parties, this problem involves conditional probability.
