You are dealt one card from a 52-card deck. Find the probability that you are not dealt a club

1 answer:

7 0

More card math! Easy!!

Exactly 1/4 of a 52-card deck of cards is clubs. Another 1/4 spades, another 1/4 is hearts, and the final 1/4 is diamonds. To find what one fourth of 52is, you can divide 52 by 4. That equals 13. So there are 13 clubs in the entire deck of cards. If you are trying <em>not </em>to get a club, you have to find the remainder of the cards without those 13. 52 - 13 = 39. This means that you have 39/52 odds of <em>not </em>getting a club. Simplified you get 3/4.

I did it the long way. A shorter was is to see that, obviously, one whole minus one fourth is three fourths.

Which of these systems of equations would be best solved using the subtraction method?

Lynna [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. x+2y=6 or x=6-2y

3x-2y=2

3(6-2y)-2y=2

18-6y-2y=2

18-8y=2

-8y=-18+2

-8y=-16

y=-16/-8

y=2 ans.

x+2*2=6

x+4=6

x=6-4=2 ans.

Proof:

3*2-2*2=2

6-4=2

2=2

I leave the rest for you to practice with.

3. 4x+y=7

2x+5y=-1

5. 3x+2y=-2

6x-y=6

Solve the system using the elimination method. Show all your steps.

7. -3x+3y=3

3x+y=9 add.

---------------------------------

4y=12

y=12/4

y=3 ans.

3x+3=9

3x=9-3

3x=6

x=6/3

x=2 ans.

Proof:

-3*2+3*3=3

-6+9=3

3=3

I'll leave the rest for practice.

9. -5x+12y=20

x-2y=-6

11. 3x+2y=1

4x+ 6y= 7

Justice hopes to build a fence around his garden he measures and determined that he needs 24 feet of fencing when he arrives at

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

It will cost $72 Justice to fence in his garden.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total length of the fencing around the garden = 24 feet

Cost of fencing per inch = $0.25

Now, as we know 1 foot = 12 inches

⇒ 24 feet = 24 x 12 inch = 288 inches

⇒ 24 feet = 288 inches

Hence, the total length of fencing = 288 inches.

Now, Total cost of Fencing

=Total length of fencing x Cost of fencing par inch

= 288 inches x ($0.25)

= $ 72

or, the total cost of fencing = $72

Hence, it will cost $72 Justice to fence in his garden.

An ice cream cone has height of 6 inches and a diameter of 2 inches what is the volume in cubic inches of the ice cream

GrogVix [38]

keeping in mind that radius is half the diameter, we know this cone has a diameter of 2 inches, so it has a radius of 1 inch, kinda small really for ice-cream, but anyhow.

$\textit{volume of a cone}\\\\ V=\cfrac{\pi r^2 h}{3}~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\ h=height\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ r=1\\ h=6 \end{cases}\implies V=\cfrac{\pi (1)^26}{3}\implies V=2\pi \implies \underset{\textit{rounded up}}{V\approx 6}$
