A flush is a combination of 5 cards with the same suit. e.g. 3d 5d 9d Jd Kd A straight flush is a combination of 5 cards with the same suit, but also connected to each other. (e.g. highest straight flush is 10s Js Qs Ks As, the lowest straight flush is Ah, 2h, 3h, 4h, 5h) A straight flush is not considered a flush. Question 2 of 4 Draw random 5 cards (in one action) from the 52 cards deck, and calculate the probability of a flush. Provide the formula you used.arrow_forward2. Consider the vector force: F(x, y, z) = 2xye²i + (x²e² + y)j + (x²ye² — z)k. (A) [80%] Show that F satisfies the conditions for a conservative vector field, and find a potential function (x, y, z) for F. Remark: To find o, you must use the method explained in the lecture.
