Answer:

Nicole's average speed is 30\ km/h.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Speed of Kristen = 50\ km/h

Time taken by Kristen to cover the distance = 3\ h

Solution,

We can find out the distance traveled by Kristen by multiplying speed with time.

Distance = Speed\times Time

Distance =50\ km/h\times 3\ h=150\ km

The distance traveled by Kristen is equal to distance traveled by Nicole.

As the question said Kristen left 2 hours later and cover the distance in 3 hours.

That means Nicole take 5 hours to cover the distance.

So, For Nicole;

Distance = 150 km

Time = 5 hrs

Here we use the formula of speed.

Speed = \frac{Distance}{time}

Now substituting the values, we get;

Speed = \frac{150\ km}{5\ h}=30\ km/h

Hence Nicole's average speed is 30\ km/h.

g What is the probability of being dealt exactly three of a kind (like three kings or three 7’s, etc.) in a five card hand from
Elena L [17]

Answer: 0.02257

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Total cards in a deck = 52

Number of ways to select any 5 cards : ^{52}C_5

Since , there are total 13 kinds of card (includes Numbers from 2 to 9 and Ace , king, queen and jack).

Of each kind , there are 4 cards.

Number of ways to select three cards in a five card hand of a single kind : ^{4}C_3\times^{48}C_2

Number of ways to select three cards in a five card hand of a exactly three of a kind : 13\times^{4}C_3\times^{48}C_2

Now , the required probability = \dfrac{13\times^{4}C_3\times^{48}C_2}{^{52}C_5}

=\dfrac{13\times4\times\dfrac{48!}{2!46!}}{\dfrac{52!}{5!47!}}\\\\\\=\dfrac{58656}{2598960}

=0.022569027611\approx0.02257

∴ The probability of being dealt exactly three of a kind (like three kings or three 7’s, etc.) in a five card hand from a deck of 52 cards= 0.02257

Find the sum of the first 47 terms of the following series, to the nearest integer.
Leokris [45]

Answer:

The sum of the first 47 terms of the series, 12, 16, 20, ... S₄₈ is 4,888

Step-by-step explanation:

The given series is;

12, 16, 20, ...,

Therefore, the first term of the series is, a = 12

The common difference of series is found as follows;

The difference between subsequent terms, 12 and 16 is  16 - 12 = 4

The difference between subsequent terms, 16, and 20 is  20 - 16 = 4

Therefore, the common difference, d = 4

The series is therefore an arithmetic projection, AP

The sum of the first 'n' terms of an AP, Sₙ, is given as follows;

S_n = \dfrac{n}{2} \cdot \left [2 \cdot a + (n - 1)\cdot d \right ]

(47/2)*(2*12+(47-1)*4)

The sum of the first 47 terms is therefore given as follows;

S_n = \dfrac{47}{2} \cdot \left [2 \times 12 + (47 - 1)\times 4 \right ] = 4,888

The sum of the first 47 terms of the series, 12, 16, 20, ... S₄₈ = 4,888
