Difficult
I understand definition 2.1.1 and theorem 2.1.2, but the poker revisited example completely throws me off because I don't know how they got the numbers. What I mean is, how do you come up with 1/(52C5) as the probability for the intersection of R and SA or (51C4)/(52C5) as the probability of SA? I thought the probability of drawing the ace of spades is 1/52. I also had trouble with repellent and attractive events. The second example using Bayes's Theorem made no sense to me. Like in the poker problem, I don't know how they got certain values for the probabilities.
Reflective
This reading has showed me that I need to review combinations. I believe that is the main reason why I am so confused on the poker example. This reading has also pointed out that I'm able to understand concepts, but when I try to apply the formulas, I'm not sure which equation to use or when to use it.
