Answer:

33/66640=0.0004952

Step-by-step explanation:

A flush is when you have 5 cards of the same suit.

There are 13 cards of each suit and total 52 cards

probability of drawing first card=13/52

probability of drawing second card=12/51

probability of drawing third card=11/50

probability of drawing fourth card=10/49

probability of drawing fifth card=9/48

Hence, total probability=

  (13×12×11×10×9)/(52×51×50×49×48)

= 33/66640

=0.0004952

i.e. option D

1st card = 13/52
2nd card = 12/51
3rd card = 11/50
4th card = 10/49
5th card = 9/48

13/52 * 12/51 * 11/50 * 10/49 * 9/48 = 33/66640

 there are 4 different suits so 4 * 33/66640 = 33/16660
 answer is C

two ships leave a port at the same time. the first ship sails on a bearing of 55° at 12 knots (natural miles per hour) and the s
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

37.59 nautical miles

Explanation:

Distance = Speed x Time

The speed of the first ship = 12 knots

Thus, the distance covered after 1.5 hours

\begin{gathered} =12\times1.5 \\ =18\text{ miles} \end{gathered}

The speed of the second ship = 22 knots

Thus, the distance covered after 1.5 hours

\begin{gathered} =22\times1.5 \\ =33\text{ miles} \end{gathered}

The diagram representing the ship's path is drawn and attached below:

The angle at port = 90 degrees.

The triangle is a right triangle.

Using Pythagorean Theorem:

\begin{gathered} c^2=a^2+b^2 \\ c^2=18^2+33^2 \\ c^2=324+1089 \\ c^2=1413 \\ c=\sqrt[]{1413} \\ c=37.59\text{ miles} \end{gathered}

The two ships are 37.59 nautical miles apart after 1.5 hours.

How do you write number 20 in exponential form? Explain please.
SOVA2 [1]
It is (7x)^(2/3). If we look at our exponent laws (SEE ATTACHMENT), we can see that we can express our equation as so.
