Since there are 2 black suites and there are 26 (1/2) black cards in a deck, and there is 1 five per suite, there are 2 black fives. Therefore, since there are 52 cards in a deck, there is a 2/52 you draw a black 5. To find the odds against that, we get 1-2/52=52/52-2/52=50/52 due to that we want to find the probability of not drawing a black 5 so we subtract the chances of getting that from the equation

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is $800.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length and width of the field be equal to l meters and b meters respectively and l > b.

Area of the field is given by l × b = 400 square meters.

The river is supposed to be along the longest side so that the price of fencing the other three sides is minimum. Thus the total perimeter of the fence is b+ b+ l = 2b+l.

Total cost for fencing the other sides of the field = $ 10 × (2b + l)

The wall is supposed to be perpendicular to the river and thus the length of the wall is b meters.

Total cost for the wall is $ 20 × b

Therefore, the total price for making the field is given by

C = 10 × (2b + l) + 20 × b

⇒ C = 40b + 10l

⇒ C = \frac{16000}{l} + 10l

To minimize the cost we differentiate the cost with respect to l and equate it to zero.

\frac{dC}{dl} = 0 = - \frac{16000}{l^{2}} + 10

⇒ l^{2} = 1600

⇒ l = 40 ; [ negative sign neglected as length cannot be negative ]

⇒ b = 10

The second order derivative of C is positive giving the minimum value of the cost.

Thus the minimum cost required to make the field is given by $800.
