A TV station started the entertainment program "Running with Passion" and set the 10 level. The game stipulates that players need to draw lots from these 10 levels to choose one of them.

(1) As can be seen from the meaning of the question, the title is equal probability event.

∫ The events involved in the experiment are five elements in 10, and * * * has C 105 results.

Player A's successful challenge is to choose 5 items from 8 items that can be crossed, and there is a C85 selection method.

∴ The probability of a player's successful challenge is: P 1=C58C5 10=29.

(2) According to the meaning of the question, the player challenged twice in a row.

I.e. independent repeated tests,

Then the probability that the player will succeed in two challenges is:

P2 = c 2 1p 1( 1-p 1)= 2×29×( 1-29)= 288 1
