Suppose you consider your birthdate to be special since it falls on Feb 16 and the class has 19 students in in it. A. Is the probablity of finding one student with a birthday that matches yours greater than, equal to, or less than the probability that there is at least one birthday match in your class. B. find the probability that atleast one other student in the class has your birthday. (The answer to B is 0.0482: can someone please explain how this is the answer)
Homework Answers
Given that my birthday is on 16 feb.
Total no. of people in class including me = 19
Probability of a student having same birthday as me = 1/365 {NOT CONSIDERING A LEAP YEAR}
A).
As we can see that probability of finding one student with a birthday that matches mine is less than probability of atleast one birthday match.
B).

5. You roll a 12-sided die with equal probability of having the numbers 1 through 12 on the upper side. Your friend covers up the number it shows, but you are given the information that it only has one digit (and therefore can't be 10, 11 and 12). What is the probability it has 5 on the upper side? 6.
