Answer:

0.000024

Step-by-step explanation:

If the first player gets exactly five hearts, there are 39 cards left, 8 of which are hearts.

So, the probability of getting one heart is 8/39, for the second heart the probability is 7/38 and 6/37 and 5/36 for the 3rd and 4th hearts.

There are still 4 hearts in the deck, and the probability of getting a non heart is (35-4)/35=31/35, (34-4)/34=30/34,..., (27-4)/27=23/27 for the next 9 cards.

<em>As the event of taking a card is independent of the previous result</em>, the probability the second player gets exactly 4 hearts is

(8/39)*(7/38)*(6/37)*(5/36)*(31/35)*(30/34)***(23/27)

= 0.000024

How to find the area of a sector with a sector angle of 72 degrees and a radius of 14 cm​
skad [1K]

Answer:

Exact area: 39.2π cm²

Approximate area: 123.2 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is πr².

A full circle can be thought of as a sector of a circle with 360° of central angle. For a sector of a circle with a central angle of n°, multiply the area of the circle by the fraction n°/360°.

The formula for the area of a sector of circle with central angle n° and radius r is

A = (n°)/(360°) × πr²

Here we have n = 72; r = 14 cm

A = (n°)/(360°) × πr²

A = (72°)/(360°) × π × (14 cm)²

A = 39.2π cm² = 123.2 cm²

For the lateral area, don't include the base area. For the surface area, you should include it.
