Parallel are two equations that have the same slope but different y intercepts.
If the y intercepts are also the same, it is just the same line.
Answer:
smaller number = 3 5/24
larger number = 6 13/24
Step-by-step explanation:
let the larger number = x
smaller number = y
x - y = 3 1/3 equation 1
2(x +y) = 191/2 equation 2
divide equation 2 through by 2
x + y = 9 3/4 equation 3
subtract equation 1 from 3
2y = 6 5/12
y = 77/12 x 1/2 = 3 5/24
substitute for y in equation 1
x - 3 5/24 = 31/3
x = 3 1/3 + 3 5/24
x = 6 13/24
Answer:
03%
Step-by-step explanation:
In this situation Mickey should have drew first 7 cards that are not diamond and then on the 8th attempt she should draw an ace.
Let A be the event of drawing 7 cards which are not diamond and B the event of drawing an ace card. therefore required probability is P(A∩B)=P(A)*P(B)
Now, there are 13 diamonds and 39 other cards. Hence,
P(A)=(
)⁷=0.1335
After drawing 7 non-diamond cards, the 8th card must be a diamond.Hence,
P(B)=
=0.25
Hence, P(A∩B)=P(A)*P(B)=0.1335*0.25=0.033(approximately 0.03,i.e. 3%)
Therefore probability that Mickey will draw her first diamond on the 8th
attempt is 3%
