Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

The card you draw is just as likely to be the ace of spades as that can be selected from any other from  51 cards.So the chance of it being the ace of spades is 1/52

Answer:

P=\frac{1}{52}

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that each box doesn't have any advantage at all, because he didn't place the ace of spades at a specific box, that's a random outcome. That means the general probability doesn't change, it's the usual.

It's like choosing a card form a 52-card deck. In other words, splitting the deck doesn't change your probabilities, it's the same scenario.

Now, we know that there's only one Ace of Spades and the total outcomes are 52. So, the probability is

P=\frac{1}{52}

17. What's the difference between 1,968 and 3,000? Check your answer using inverse operations.
Georgia [21]
The difference between 1,968 and 3,000 is 1,038. You can check the answer using inverse operations by adding 1,038 and 1,968. If it gives 3,000 then the answer is right. 3, 000 - 1,968 = 1,038.

1,038 + 1,968 = 3,000

Write an expression to represent the perimeter of:
malfutka [58]

So perimeter is adding all sides

In this picture, you have all sides, so add them up!

(2a-3)+(3a+1)+(2a) = P

So this expression shows that we're adding all sides that gives us the P, or perimeter :)
