The probability that a red card is drawn at least once by the third draw is 0.88.
What is probability?
The area of mathematics known as probability deals with numerical descriptions of how likely it is for an event to happen or for a claim to be true. A number between 0 and 1 is the probability of an event, where, broadly speaking, 0 denotes the event's impossibility and 1 denotes its certainty.
Let, a card is drawn from a standard deck of 52 cards and then placed back into the deck.
In a standard 52 card deck the red cards are 26.
So,
P(red) = n(red cards) / n(total cards)
= 26 / 52
P(red) = 0.50
Now, X ≈ Bin (n = 3, P = 0.50)
P(X = x) = (n x) p^x (1 - p)^n-x
(n x) = [tex]\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
P(X ≥ 1) = 1 - P(X < 1)
= 1 - P(X = 0)
= 1- (3 0)(0.5)^0(0.5)^3
= 1 - 0.125
= 0.875
P(X ≥ 1) = 0.88
Hence, the probability that a red card is drawn at least once by the third draw is 0.88.
