... You randomly grabbed 6 suits. Find the probability that at least 5 have shoes. Round to the nearest hundredth of a percent. Process: P(5 have shoes) + P(6) since you cannot choose more than 6 with shoes. Since there is no replacement, use the hypergeometric formula for P(5) and P(6). Answer: 91.30% ...

... (a) The position of the fly in the next time step only depends on the current position, so the process is a Markov chain. It is irreducible, finite (thus positive recurrent), and periodic with period 2. (b) Starting at position 1, we know that the fly will return to that position only after an even ...

Probability amplitude
In quantum mechanics, a probability amplitude is a complex number used in describing the behaviour of systems. The modulus squared of this quantity represents a probability or probability density.Probability amplitudes provide a relationship between the wave function (or, more generally, of a quantum state vector) of a system and the results of observations of that system, a link first proposed by Max Born. Interpretation of values of a wave function as the probability amplitude is a pillar of the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics. In fact, the properties of the space of wave functions were being used to make physical predictions (such as emissions from atoms being at certain discrete energies) before any physical interpretation of a particular function was offered. Born was awarded half of the 1954 Nobel Prize in Physics for this understanding (see #References), and the probability thus calculated is sometimes called the ""Born probability"". These probabilistic concepts, namely the probability density and quantum measurements, were vigorously contested at the time by the original physicists working on the theory, such as Schrödinger and Einstein. It is the source of the mysterious consequences and philosophical difficulties in the interpretations of quantum mechanics—topics that continue to be debated even today.
