Given:
The cards numbered are, 1,2,3,5,6,8, and 9 are grey.
The cards numbered 4,7 and 10 are white.
The total number of cards =10.
Let X be the event that the drawn card is grey.
P(X) be the probability of X.
Required:
We need to find P(X) and P(not X).
Explanation:
All possible outcomes = All cards.
[tex]n(S)=10[/tex]
Click boxes that are numbered 1,2,3,5,6,8, and 9 for event X.
The favourable outcomes = 1,2,3,5,6,8, and 9
[tex]n(X)=7[/tex]
Since X be the event that the drawn card is grey.
The probability of X is
[tex]P(X)=\frac{n(X)}{n(S)}=\frac{7}{10}[/tex]
Let not X be the event that the drawn card is not grey,
All possible outcomes = All cards.
[tex]n(S)=10[/tex]
Click boxes that are numbered 4,7, and 10 for event not X.
The favourable outcomes = 4,7, and 10
[tex]n(not\text{ }X)=3[/tex]
Since not X be the event that the drawn card is whic is not grey.
The probability of not X is
[tex]P(not\text{ }X)=\frac{n(not\text{ }X)}{n(S)}=\frac{3}{10}[/tex]
Consider the equation.
[tex]1-P(not\text{ X\rparen}[/tex][tex]Substitute\text{ }P(not\text{ }X)=\frac{3}{10}\text{ in the equation.}[/tex][tex]1-P(not\text{ X\rparen=1-}\frac{3}{10}[/tex][tex]1-P(not\text{ X\rparen=1}\times\frac{10}{10}\text{-}\frac{3}{10}=\frac{10-3}{10}=\frac{7}{10}[/tex]
[tex]1-P(not\text{ X\rparen is same as }P(X).[/tex]
Final answer:
[tex]1-P(not\text{ X\rparen is same as }P(X).[/tex]
