4 0

Answer:

16/52 or 4/13 when reduced.

Step-by-step explanation:

4/52 is for the Jack card since there are 4 jack cards out of a total of 52 cards.

12/52 is for the face cards since there are 12 face cards out of a total of 52 cards.

Since the problem says OR, this means one or the other, so you will be adding those two fractions together. If the problem said AND, this would mean that you have to multiply since both would have to occur.

A)x 1/9

Answer:

Answer should be x^9

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation looks really complicted, but it's actually much easier when you break it down! First, your going to multiply the fraction 3/2 by 6 - since one is a fraction, youre going to find the GCF, or Greatest Common Factor, and reduce it. The GCF in this equation is 2, so we eliminate the two from the fraction (making it just 3) and divide 6 by 2 (getting 3). Thus, we are left with (x^3)^3 -> 3 x 3 = 9. So we are left with x^9. I hope this helps!
