It's a risk.
For example: | x | = -1 Or any other equation where the absolute value of any expression is negative. This doesn't have a solution, because the absolute number of any expression is always positive, or zero, never negative.

Probability is a numerical value defined for a set of outcomes. It is non-negative and such that the sum or integral over all possible outcomes is 1.
They both mean result; but implication is a possible result and outcome of an action, not necessarily negative. whereas consequence is a result of an action, but often not good.
A probability distribution must have a well defined domain - that is, the set of possible outcomes.For each possible outcome, there must be a non-negative value associated - the probability of that outcome.The sum of the probabilities, over all possible outcomes, must be 1.
