You are dealt one card from a standard 52-card deck. Find the probability of being dealt an ace or a 6.

Ainat [17]

Answer:

2/13

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there's 4 of each card in the deck this means that there're 4 sixes and 4 aces, so 8 cards in a 52 card deck gives the problem 8/52 which equals 2/13

Flying to Kampala with a tailwind a plane averaged 158km per hr ... The the return trip the plane only averaged 112 km per . . w

AURORKA [14]

W=wind
p + w=158...p=158-w
p-w=112...p=112+w
SO 158-w=112+w
46=2w
23=w
SO in conclusion you have the correct answer of wind being 23km/h while the plane is going 135 km/h

Write the equation of the line of best fit using the slope-intercept formula $y = mx + b$. Show all your work, including the poi

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

$y=\frac{5}{7}x+\frac{135}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You only need two points on a line to find the equation for that line.

We are going to use 2 points that cross that line or at least come close to. You don't have to use the green points... just any point on the line will work. You might have to approximate a little.

I see ~(67.5,67.5) and ~(64,65).

Now once you have your points, we need to find the slope.

You may use $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ where $(x_1,y_1) \text{ and } (x_2,y_2)$ are points on the line.
