The correct answer is B. Hardness and brittleness

Explanation:

The ions in materials such as chalk and other ionic compounds are bonded by electrostatic forces. These features give ionic compound unique characteristics. This includes the fact these materials are usually hard, which means they do not deform easily and the fact these are brittle, which means they break easily.

These properties can be observed in chalk because the chalk itself keeps its shape or does not deform (hardness) but it breaks easily under pressure (brittleness), indeed due to this last property it is possible to write using chalk and due to the first property it is possible the chalk is a durable material.

A magician has a collection of 52 cards, with 26 red and 26 black cards. Four of these cards are classified as 'special', and tw
Brums [2.3K]

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)

Which of the following is a solution to the equation y = 3x - 1 ?
Korvikt [17]
One way of determining the answer is by substituting the values to the equation. It is done as follows:

A. (4,1)
<span>y = 3x - 1
</span>1 = 3(4) - 1 = 11 -------> not equal

B. (2,5)
<span>y = 3x - 1
</span>5 = 3(2) - 1 = 5 --------> equal

C. (4,3)
<span>y = 3x - 1
</span>3 = 3(4) -1 --------------> not equal

D. (0, -3)
<span>y = 3x - 1
-3 = 3(0) -1 = -1 ---------> not equal</span>
