Answer: It is B)
Step-by-step explanation: It was 8.66 something and that rounded to the nearest tenth is 8.7
First, let's count:
there are 26 possible outcomes for E1 (black card)
there are 4x9 = 36 possible outcomes for E2, to pick a numbered card (any color)
there are 2x9 =18 possible outcomes for E1 (black) AND E2 (numbered, spade + clower)
the probability of E1 AND E2 is the ratio of the count of possible outcomes for E1 + E2 and the count of all possible outcomes (52 choices to pick a card from the deck):
P(E1 and E2) = 18/52 (34.6%)
And as asked:
P(E1) = 26/52 = 1/2 (50%)
P(E2) = 36/52 = 9/13 (69.2%)
Answer:
2.07
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
3 3/7 or 24/7 mins
Step-by-step explanation:
Let total job = X
Jeff's rate = X/6
Bob's rate = X/8
Combined rate = X/6 + X/8
(4X × 3X)/24 = 7X/24
7X/24 = X/T
T = X ÷ (7X/24)
T = X × (24/7X)
T = 24/7 mins
Shortcut:
T = product of individual times/sum of individual times
T = (6×8)/(6+8)
T = 48/14
T = 24/7
T = 3 3/7 mins
