enyata [817]3 years ago
7 0

\frac{a}{b} < \frac{b}{a} \implies \\ a^2 < b^2 \implies a-b

We are given that 0<a<b, which means that 0>-a>-b if you multiply it by -1, which means what's given by our inequality is true and we are done.

A deck of cards contains 10 black cards and 10 red cards. The first card drawn is not replaced before drawing the second card. W
Virty [35]
<h3>Answer:  9/38</h3>

Reason:

There are 10 red cards out of 10+10 = 20 total.

10/20 = 1/2 is the probability of selecting a red card.

If the red card is not put back (i.e. "no replacement"), then the chances of getting another red card is (10-1)/(20-1) = 9/19

Multiply the two fractions mentioned to get the final answer.

(1/2)*(9/19) = (1*9)/(2*19) = 9/38
