Answer:
the probability is 2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the coins are randomly selected, the probability of pulling a dime first is the number of dimes (4) divided by the total number of coins (10).
p(dime first) = 4/10 = 2/5
Then, having drawn a dime, there are 9 coins left, of which 5 are nickels. The probability of randomly choosing a nickel is 5/9.
The joint probability of these two events occurring sequentially is the product of their probabilities:
p(dime then nickel) = (2/5)×(5/9) = 2/9
_____
<em>Alternate solution</em>
You can go at this another way. You can list all the pairs of coins that can be drawn. There are 90 of them: 10 first coins and, for each of those, 9 coins that can be chosen second. Of these 90 possibilities, there are 4 dimes that can be chosen first, and 5 nickels that can be chosen second, for a total of 20 possible dime-nickel choices out of the 90 total possible outcomes.
p(dime/nickel) = 20/90 = 2/9
The expected value is $38.46.
The probability of drawing a 10 from any suit is 4/52. Multiply this by the earnings, 500:
4/52(500) = 2000/52 = 38.46
Like I said on the other question. Slope will ALWAYS be the number beside x and y-intercept will always be after that.
Slope-intercept form = y = mx + b
Slope goes where m is and y-intercept goes where b is.
Hope this helps!

Answer:
90 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let d represent the distance to Grandma's house.
The speed going was ...
speed = distance/time
speed = d/2
The speed coming home was ...
speed = d/2.25
The difference of these speeds is 5 miles per hour:
d/2 -d/2.25 = 5
2.25d -2d = 5(4.50) . . . . . multiply by 4.50
0.25d = 22.5 . . . . . . . . . . .simplify
d = 90 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 4
Grandma's house is 90 miles away.
Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
all of the angles add up to equal 180 so we setup the equation as 45+3x=180
first you subtract each side by 45
135=3x
then you divide each side by 3 and get that
x=45
