To figure out this problem break it down into steps.

We know that there are 1 - 25 or 25 cards in total, one card is taken out and not replaced so now there are only 24 cards.

25 - 1 = 24.

Find the probability of getting one number greater than 10, this would be all numbers from 10 - 25, which are 25 - 10 = 15 options to choose that will give you a value greater than 10.

Probability = 15/24 = 5/8.

For 2 cards simply multiply the probability by itself to get 2 cards where the number is greater than 10.

5/8 • 5/8 = 25/64.

The probability of getting 2 cards that are greater than 10, are 25/64.

This is the solution.

Solve for 2x^2-4x+5=6

Softa [21]

To solve for a variable, you need to get it (x) by itself.

2x² - 4x + 5 = 6 Subtract 6 from both sides
2x² - 4x - 1 = 0 Plug this into the Quadratic Formula

a = 2 , b = -4 , c = -1
x = $\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}$ Plug in your values
x = $\frac{-(-4) \pm \sqrt{(-4)^2 - 4(2)(-1)} }{2(2)}$ Simplify
x = $\frac{4 \pm \sqrt{16 + 8} }{4}$ Simplify
x = $\frac{4 \pm 2\sqrt{6} }{4}$ Simplify by removing a 2 from every term
x = $\frac{2 \pm \sqrt{6} }{2}$ Simplify by taking the fraction apart
x = $\frac{2}{2} \pm \frac{ \sqrt{6} }{2}$ Change $\frac{2}{2}$ to 1
x = 1 $\pm \frac{ \sqrt{6} }{2}$ Simplify $\frac{ \sqrt{6} }{2}$ to $\sqrt{ \frac{3}{2} }$
x = 1 $\pm \sqrt{ \frac{3}{2} }$

two sides of a triangle measures 25 cm + 35 CM which of the following would be the measure of the third side

Oxana [17]

Assuming those are the legs of the triangle and that you need to find the hypotenuse... I would use the formula: a^2+b^2=c^2
It doesn't matter what a and b are, just fill it in.
25^2+35^2=c^2
625+1225=c^2
1850=c^2
Take the square root of 1850, it isn't a perfect square so I got: 43.01.
If you want, just round it to 43, idc.
So, if I were to check my work, I would need to remember that the hypotenuse is the longest side.
Since 43 is the hypotenuse, it is the longest side.

a rock band has 5 members and, 2/5 of the members play string instruments. Also, 0.4 of the members sing.Does the band have the

Bad White [126]

Convert 2/5 to a decimal and you get .4, or 40%. 40% of the band members also sing, so yes, the band has the same number of string instrument players and singers.

Which expression is equivalent to b^-2/ab^-5? a) a/b^5 b)1/ab^5 c)a^3b/1 d)b/a

Snezhnost [94]

$\bf a^{-{ n}} \implies \cfrac{1}{a^{ n}}\qquad \qquad
\cfrac{1}{a^{-n}}\implies a^{{ n}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{b^{-2}}{ab^{-5}}\implies \cfrac{b^{-2}\cdot b^{+5}}{a}\implies \cfrac{b^{-2+5}}{a}\implies \cfrac{b^3}{a}$

Solve the following system of equations. Express your answer as an ordered pair in the format (a,

choli [55]

The second equation is -5-2y=2, then

-2y=2-(-5),

-2y=2+5,
-2y=7,
y=7÷(-2),
y=-3.5.
The first equation is 2x+5y=16, subtitude y=-3.5 in this equation, then
2x+5·(-3.5)=16,
2x-17.5=16,
2x=16-(-17.5),
2x=16+17.5,
2x=33.5,
x=33.5÷2,
x=16.75.
Answer: (16.75,-3.5)
