What is the probability of throwing a 5 on a dice?
1 in 6. U would of thought it was 5/6 but there aren't five 5s on a dice. There's only1.
What year was probability discovered?
Probability is a concept that cannot be "discovered." The concept of probability is ingrained in any complex organism's thought process through evolution and has been ever since complex thought evolved. To survive, animals are constantly taking statistics, weighing odds, figuring out what course of action will lead to survival. For example, an owl might hunt at night and decide to target a certain area of hunting ground, deciding that it is more probable that prey might be found in that area. However, as a formal category of mathematics, theories regarding probabilities can be developed or "discovered." See the related question below.
What is the probability of the existence of aliens?
Well the universe in infinitely large with plenty of other solar systems, so to believe that life started on some other planet than ours somewhere out there isn't wrong. Whether they are more advanced then us is another thought.
What is the probability of getting neither an ace nor a heart?
The probability of not getting on ace is 48 in 52, or 12 in 13, or about 0.9231. The probability of not getting a heart is 39 in 52, or 3 in 4, or 0.75.These two events, however, are not exclusive, so you can not just multiply them together. You need to look at the big picture. But look at the summary below.There are 4 aces in the deck, one of which is a heart. There are 13 hearts in the deck, one of which is an ace. The inclusion set is 16 cards that are either an ace or a heart. Flip this over by subtracting from 52 and you get 36 cards that are not an ace nor a heart.So, the probability of getting neither an ace nor a heart is 36 in 52, or 18 in 26, or 9 in 13, or about 0.6923.Now, it turns out that you could have just multiplied the probabilities and obtained the same result. This worked because you were looking at inverse probabilities. It would not have worked if the question was to find the probability of getting an ace or a heart.In summary, I went ahead and showed the thought process involved to illustrate a point - that you need to understand the set of possible outcomes in order to make a correct calculation.
Probability and queuing theory?
I will rephrase your question, as to "What relationship does queueing theory and probability therory?" Queueing theory is the mathematical study of waiting lines See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queueing_theory Wait times, by their nature, are uncertain but can be represented by probability distributions. From a distribution, I may be able to tell that the chance of waiting more than 5 minutes for service is 10%, or that there is a 95% chance that my complete time in a facility (service time and wait time) is less than 15 minutes. On the other side, queueing theory may determine how often those responsible for service have no customers. The theory has broad applications, ranging from computer networks, telephony systems, delivery of goods and services (such as mail, home repair, etc) to an area and customer service in any location where people might stand in line. Traffic analysis uses queueing theory extensively. The "forward" analyses begins with an assumed probability distribution. Given probability distributions that are thought to describe certain activities (number of customers arriving in a particular time span, time spent with each customer and special events -frequency of events and time spent on special events), the distribution of waiting times can be determined mathematically. Thus, probability theory provides the basis (distribution and mathematical theory) for queueing applications. Today, more complex queueing problems are solved by Monte-Carlo simulation, which after thousands (or hundreds of thousands) of repeated runs, can provide nearly the same accuracy of statistics and distributions as those generated from purely mathematical solution. More broadly, queueing modeling and theoretical solutions are within stochastic process analysis.

Electron Cloud
What is an often thought of as a region of space in which there is a high probability of finding an electron?
You think probable to ionosphere.
The spin quantum number of an electron can be thought of as describing?
direction of electron spin
Are the electrons found inside the nucleus?
Although there exists a non-zero probability for an electron to be within the nucleus, the greatest probability is for them to be found somewhere outside there. The average (more precisely, the expectation value of the) distance between an electron and the nucleus is represented by the different periods of the periodic table. With an increasing period number comes an increasing average distance.
When was the electron cloud theory first thought of?
in 1809 by neils Rutherford
What did Dora the Explorer thought Finding Nemo was about before she watched it?
She thought it was about Captin Nemo not a fish
When three dice are rolled what is the probability that at least two of the dice have the same value using Matlab?
The probability is 1 and you do not need Matlab to get that answer - only a little bit of thought.
Why does correlation happen?
Finding patterns is a basic strategy of human thought.
What is an electron level?
An atom is surrounded by electrons, circulating at different energy levels, at different distances from the nucleus. The electron energy level, or electron orbital, is where the highest probability exists of finding the occurrence of an electron. The energy level could depend on the distance from the nucleus, but that is not known for sure, because of the inconvenience to measure subatomic distances. Energy leveling refers to quantum mechanical considerations, in defining the sub-electronic atomic structure, in order to describe electrons within the scheme of periodicity, and electronic configuration theories, which accounts for all elements. In the coincidences of solving systems of multiple equations - nodes, roots, and parallaxes show leveling, as in layered effects; where electrons are thought to exist, as minute bodies of negative charges. Definition constraints act as support for reckognition, as objects at rest are bound by shelving. Then thess terms can be used to further characterize reactivity, weight, structure, and other chemical, physical, and class properties. The electron energy level is the (spheroidal) shelving area, surrounding the nucleus, where electrons (of that energy type) can be found, most of the time.
Why cant you determine the exact location of an electron in an atom?
Because the electrons are in constant motion(momentum), so to find their exact location one must find this location plus momentum at the same time. It is thought to be impossible to find the exact location and momentum simultaniously, because, to find location you must stop the particle, and to find momentum the particle must be moving.
Why was poly nomial afraid of finding her second derivative?
she thought she would get points of infliction!
What is discrete probability distruction?
I am not sure but, allowing for a typo, it could refer to surreptitiously trying to destroy something thought not being certain of your success.
