Let d be distance travelled when they are level , and t = time that nora took to get level with mason
for Nora
6 = d/t
d = 6t
for Mason
5 = d / (t + 35)
d = 5 ( t + 350
so 6t = 5(t + 35)
solve for t
Answer:
43.5
Step-by-step explanation:
First
1218 divided by 2
= 609
Second
609 divided by 14 is =43.5
43.5 is the answer
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
tangent lines from the same point to a circle are congruent in length, so we can say that
5x+8 = 8x-4
5x -5x +8 = 8x - 5x -4
8 = 3x - 4
8+4 = 3x -4 + 4
3x = 12
3x/3 = 12/3
x=4
Cards are drawn, one at a time, from a standard deck; each card is replaced before the next one is drawn. Let X be the number of draws necessary to get an ace. Find E(X) is given in the following way
Step-by-step explanation:
- From a standard deck of cards, one card is drawn. What is the probability that the card is black and a
jack? P(Black and Jack) P(Black) = 26/52 or ½ , P(Jack) is 4/52 or 1/13 so P(Black and Jack) = ½ * 1/13 = 1/26
- A standard deck of cards is shuffled and one card is drawn. Find the probability that the card is a queen
or an ace.
P(Q or A) = P(Q) = 4/52 or 1/13 + P(A) = 4/52 or 1/13 = 1/13 + 1/13 = 2/13
- WITHOUT REPLACEMENT: If you draw two cards from the deck without replacement, what is the probability that they will both be aces?
P(AA) = (4/52)(3/51) = 1/221.
- WITHOUT REPLACEMENT: What is the probability that the second card will be an ace if the first card is a king?
P(A|K) = 4/51 since there are four aces in the deck but only 51 cards left after the king has been removed.
- WITH REPLACEMENT: Find the probability of drawing three queens in a row, with replacement. We pick a card, write down what it is, then put it back in the deck and draw again. To find the P(QQQ), we find the
probability of drawing the first queen which is 4/52.
- The probability of drawing the second queen is also 4/52 and the third is 4/52.
- We multiply these three individual probabilities together to get P(QQQ) =
- P(Q)P(Q)P(Q) = (4/52)(4/52)(4/52) = .00004 which is very small but not impossible.
- Probability of getting a royal flush = P(10 and Jack and Queen and King and Ace of the same suit)
