I need to calculate the probability of winning the Mega Million jackpot.
First you must choose the correct 5 numbers between 1 and 56. I believe that solution is 56!/51! 5! or The probability of 1/3,819,816
The next step is, in a separate single drawing, choose the correct number between 1-46. So there is a 1/46 chance of picking that number.
is the probability of choosing all numbers 1/3,819,816 x 1/46?

The probability density function has what value in the interval between 20 and 28?
I think you left off some important information. Perhaps you can supply this information, to obtain assistance. To calculate the probability or the chance of occurrence between two values, we calculate: Pr{a < X < b} = F(b) - F(a) where F(x) = cumulative probability distribution. The distribution requires certain known parameters. In the case of the Normal distribution, the mean and standard deviation are parameters. In your particular case, a = 20 and b = 28.
What is the difference between probability and actuality?
probability is a guess and actuality is what will happen
What is the relationship between the probability of a simple event and its complement?
If the probability of an event is p, then the complementary probability is 1-p.

Calculate 2 million minus 1 million. Then subtract one (if you want to exclude the endpoints), or add one (if you want to include them).

No, -0.32 can not be a probability. Probability ranges between 0 and 1.
What is sequence in probability?
There is no relationship between sequences and probability.
The probability that a standard normal random variable Z is less than 50 is approximately 0?
False. It is approximately 1. Theoretically, it is not 1. I used excel, and I know the probability is between 0.999999 and 1. as the probability of Z<6 is 0.999999. I can't calculate the probability exactly because excel only goes to 7 place accuracy.
What is the estimated transsexuals living in the US?
It is estimated that worldwide, between 0.5 to 1% of the population is transgendered. Knowing that the number of people in the US is between 300 and 400 million we can calculate the between 2 and 4 million people in the US are transgendered (compared to 1.5 million to 3 million in China alone.)
