The answer is A, all that was needed was to do the math.
Answer:
option B (28/52)
Step-by-step explanation:
from probability
P(A∪B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A∩B)
where
P(A∪B) = probability that event A or B happen
P(A∩B) = probability that event A and B happen simultaneously
P(A) = probability that event A happen
P(B) = probability that event B happen
the probability that the card is special or red
P( special or red)= P(special) + P(red) - P( special and red)
since
P(special)= 4/52
P(red) = 26/52
P( special and red) = 2/52
therefore
P( special or red)= 4/52 + 26/52 - 2/52 = 28/52
P( special or red)= 28/52
(option B)
Answer: x = 14.43
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean Theorem states the following:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Make one side of the triangle x
Make the second side of the triangle 2x
Now, you can plug the values into the equation, right?
x^2 + 2x^2 = 25^2 or 625
3x^2 = 625
Divide each side by 3 and you are left with:
x^2 = 208.33
Now, take the square root of 208.33
x = 14.43
That is the shorter side. The longer side is twice that value: Therefore, 14.43 x 2 = 28.86 14.43 is one side of the triangle. The other is that same value times two. Therefore, the sides of your triangle are: 14.43 Shorter side 28.86 Longer side
