If a single card is drawn from a standard 52-card deck, what is the probability that it is an ace or a spade?

A 52-card deck is made up of an equal number of diamonds, hearts, spades, and clubs. Because there are 4 suits, there is a 1/4 chance to draw one of them, in our case, spades.

There are 4 aces in a 52-card deck, so the chance of drawing one is 4/52, or 1/13.

The question asks for the probability of drawing an ace or a spade. Because it uses the word "or," we add the probabilities together. This is because there is a chance of drawing either of the cards; it doesn't have to meet both requirements to satisfy the statement.

However, if the question were to say "and," we would multiply the two probabilities.

Let's add 1/4 and 1/13. First, we can find a common denominator. We can use 52 because both fractions can multiply into it (since the ratio came from a deck of 52 cards as well).

\frac{1}{4} -- > \frac{13}{52}

\frac{1}{13} -- > \frac{4}{52}

Now we can add them together.

\frac{13}{52} + \frac{4}{52} = \frac{13+4}{52} = \frac{17}{52}

This cannot be simplified further, so the probability is 17 in 52, or 33%.

hope this helps!

Algebra: Explain in words how to write an equation that is part one: parallel and then also part two: perpendicular to the equat
sweet-ann [11.9K]
A line that is parallel has the same slop where a line that is perpendicular has a slop that is negative and reciprocal.

so for the parallel one you don't need to worry about the slop because it will be 2/3x. But yous the point slope equation form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y+5=2/3(x+2)

y+5=2/3x+ 4/3

y=2/3x-11/3

-2/3x+y=-11/3

multiple by -1 so A inst negative

2/3-y=11/3

For a line that is perpendicular you just need to flip the original 2/3x slope and make it negative.

y+5=-3/2(x+2)

y+5=-3/2x-3

y=-3/2x-8

3/2x+y=-8

9. Triangle Construction pays Square Insurance $5,980
xxTIMURxx [149]

The triangle pay $32 more for that day than it paid per day during the first period of time.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

              Triangle Construction pays Square Insurance $5,980

               To insure a construction site for 92 days

               To extend the  insurance beyond the 92 days costs $97 per day

               Triangle extends the insurance by 1 day

Step:1

              Insurance per day from the 92 days period,

                                                                           = \frac{Total insuratio for 92 days}{Period}

               Where, Total insurance for 92 days = $ 5,980

                                                               Period = 92 days

               From the values, equation becomes,

                                                                            =\frac{5980}{92}

                                                                           = $ 65 per day

Step:2

              Insurance per day after the 92 days,

                                                                           = $ 97

               Amount Pay for that day than it paid per day during the first period of time,

                                                                            =(97-65)

                                                                           = $32

Result:

             The triangle pay $32 more for that day than it paid per day during the first period of time, if  the Triangle Construction pays Square Insurance $5,980 to insure a construction site for 92 days and to extend the  insurance beyond the 92 days costs $97 per day.
