What is the probability that the card is either a black cardblack card or aa 99?

1 answer:

6 0

It sounds like your book is asking "what is the probability that the card is either a black card or a 9"

If so, there are 26 black cards (13 spades and 13 clubs) and four cards that have "9" on them (one in each suit). We have 26+4 = 30 cards that are either one or the other. There is overlap though. Namely the 2 black cards that have "9" on them (we count them twice), so we should subtract to get 30-2 = 28

There are 28 cards that either have a '9' on them, they are black, or both

This is out of 52 cards total

Divide the two values: 28/52 = 14/26 = 7/13 = 0.53846

Answer as a fraction: 7/13
Answer in decimal form: 0.53846
Answer as a percentage: 53.846%
Side note: the decimal form and percentage form are approximate

Answer:

5 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Amount of gift card = $80

Cost of coffee per pound = $8.24

Amount left in the card = $38.80

To find:

Number of pounds of coffee bought = ?

Solution:

Let the number of pounds of the coffee bought = $x$ pounds

Cost of 1 pound = $8.24

Cost of $x$ pounds = $8.24 $\times x$

Writing the equation as per question statement:

$80 - 8.24x = 38.80\\\Rightarrow 80 - 38.80 = 8.24x\\\Rightarrow 8.24x = 41.2\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{41.2}{8.24}\\\Rightarrow \bold{x = 5\ pounds}$

Therefore, 5 pounds of coffee was bought.

If you flip the five coins, and the probability of one coin being "tails" is 0.50, what is the probability of getting "tails" on

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer: 0.03125

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the probability of getting a tail , we toss a fair coin = 0.5

Given : Total number of trials = 5

Using binomial probability formula :

$P(x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}$ , where P(x) is the probability of getting success in x trails, n is total number of trials and p is the probability of getting success in each trial.
