You draw one card from a 52-card deck. Then the card is replaced in the deck and the deck is shuffled, and you draw again.

Required;

Find the probability of drawing a nine the first time and a diamond the

second time.

Step-by-step solution;

To solve this math problem, we take note of the following;

A standard 52-card deck contains,

[tex]\begin{gathered} 13\text{ }Hearts \\ \\ 13\text{ }Diamonds \\ \\ 13\text{ }Clubs \\ \\ 13\text{ }Spades \end{gathered}[/tex]

Each of the suits (that is, hearts, diamonds, clubs and spades) has a 9 card each which means there are four 9s in the entire 52-card deck.

Hence, the probabilty of drawing a 9 is given as follows;

[tex]\begin{gathered} Probability\text{ }of\text{ }[event]=\frac{number\text{ }of\text{ }required\text{ }outcomes\text{ }}{number\text{ }of\text{ }all\text{ }possible\text{ }outcomes} \\ \\ Probability\text{ }[9]=\frac{4}{52} \\ \\ Probability\text{ }[9]=\frac{1}{13} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Note that the card is replaced before the commencement of the next experiment.

This means for the second draw, we have a complete 52-card deck.

Therefore, for the probability of drawing a diamond, note that we have 13 diamonds in all. Hence,

[tex]\begin{gathered} Probability\text{ }[diamond]=\frac{13}{52} \\ \\ Probability\text{ }[diamond]=\frac{1}{4} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The probability of event A and event B is the product of probabilities. This means;

[tex]Probability\text{ }of\text{ }A\text{ }and\text{ }Probability\text{ }of\text{ }B=P[A]\text{ }\times\text{ }P[B][/tex]

Therefore, the probability of drawing a nine the first time and a diamond the second time is given as;

[tex]\begin{gathered} P[9]\text{ }and\text{ }P[diamond]=\frac{1}{13}\times\frac{1}{4} \\ \\ P[9]\text{ }and\text{ }P[diamond]=\frac{1}{52} \end{gathered}[/tex]

ANSWER:

[tex]\frac{1}{52}[/tex]
