There are \binom{52}4 ways of drawing a 4-card hand, where

\dbinom nk = \dfrac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}

is the so-called binomial coefficient.

There are 13 different card values, of which we want the hand to represent 4 values, so there are \binom{13}4 ways of meeting this requirement.

For each card value, there are 4 choices of suit, of which we only pick 1, so there are \binom41 ways of picking a card of any given value. We draw 4 cards from the deck, so there are \binom41^4 possible hands in which each card has a different value.

Then there are \binom{13}4 \binom41^4 total hands in which all 4 cards have distinct values, and the probability of drawing such a hand is

\dfrac{\dbinom{13}4 \dbinom41^4}{\dbinom{52}4} = \boxed{\dfrac{2816}{4165}} \approx 0.6761

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Average speed = 100 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total distance covered = 250 km

Total time taken = 8:30 am - 6:00 am = 2:30 hours = 2.5

Find:

Average speed.

Computation:

⇒ Average speed = Total distance covered / Total time taken

⇒ Average speed = 250 / 2.5

⇒ Average speed = 100 km/h

an electronics store had 182 video games. if they put them on shelves with 24 on each shelf, about how many shelves would they n
GalinKa [24]
182 games 24 on each shelf basicaaly x shelves is more than or equal to 182 games 1 shelf=24 x times 24>182 divide both sides by 24 x>7 and 4/24 x has to be a whole number since you can't have fractional shelves you have to have more shelves since less shelves won't allow you to carry all of them round up 7 and something rounded u is 8

 8 shelves (if you are a weird store that has fractional shelves then the answer is 7 and 1/6 shelves)

Which of the following are solutions to the equation below?
inysia [295]

The answer is C and D

First we must make one side of the equation zero, so we subtract 7 on both sides of the equation, making the equation 9x^2 - 6x - 6 = 0

Then we will use the quadratic formula to find the answers.

using the Quadratic Formula where:

a = 9, b = -6, and c = -6

and the formula is 6 +- \sqrt{6^{2} } -4 (9)(6) /2 (9)
