Answer: 2

Step-by-step explanation:

to find this you use the equation

y2-y1

--------

x2-x1

so with your points tuat would be

5+3/4-0 (it becomes a plus bc two negatives= a positive

8/4=2

If you are 600 m from a batter when you see him hit a ball, how long will you wait to hear the sound of the bat hitting the ball

Molodets [167]

Answer:

The speed of sound at 20°C is 343.42 m/s.

You have to wait 1.75 seconds to hear the sound of the bat hitting the ball

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of Sound

The speed of sound is not constant with temperature. Generally speaking, the greater the temperature, the greater the speed of sound.

The approximate speed of sound in dry air at temperatures T near 0°C is calculated from:

$\displaystyle v_{\mathrm {s} }=(331.3+0.606\cdot T )~~~\mathrm {m/s}$

The air is at T=20°C, thus the speed of sound is:

$\displaystyle v_{\mathrm {s} }=(331.3+0.606\cdot 20 )~~~\mathrm {m/s}$

$v_{\mathrm {s} }=343.42\ m/s$

The speed of sound at 20°C is 343.42 m/s.

To calculate the time to hear the sound after the batter hits the ball, we use the formula of constant speed motion:

$\displaystyle v=\frac{d}{t}$

Where d is the distance and t is the time. Solving for t:

$\displaystyle t=\frac{d}{v}$

Substituting the values v=343.42 m/s and d=600 m:

$\displaystyle t=\frac{600}{343.42}$

t = 1.75 s

You have to wait 1.75 seconds to hear the sound of the bat hitting the ball

A poker hand is a set of 5 cards randomly chosen from a deck of 52 cards. Find the probability of a (a) royal flush (ten, jack,

zysi [14]

Answer:

a) 0.000001539

b) 0.00001385

c) 0.0002401

d) 0.001441

e) 0.001966

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 52 deck of cards, and the hand of the poker is 5 set, then the total number of hands achievable would be

T = 52! / 5!(52 - 5)!

T = 52! / 5! 47 !

T = 2598560 possibilities.

a) There are 4 ways of getting a royal flush. So the probability of getting a royal flush is

4 / 2598560 =

0.000001539

b) There are 9 hands from the 5 card hands, and also, there are 4 possible suits. So then, the probability is

9 * 4 / 2598560 =

36 / 2598560 =

0.00001385

c) There are 13 possible ways to get a four of a kind, since there are 5 cards with the poker, the remaining would be taken from the 48 remaining cards, thus

13 * 48 / 2598560 =

624 / 2598560 =

0.0002401

d) 3 of a kind in conjunction with a pair is needed to form a full house. This 3 of a kind can be gotten from any 4 suits. Then again, the pair has two cards with the same face value. So,

4! / 2! (4 - 2)! =

4! / 2! 2! = 6

That means, there are 6 possible ways to get our needed suits. Then, the probability of getting a full house is

13 * 4 * 12 * 6 / 2598560 =

3744 / 2598560 =

0.001441

e) To get a flush, all the 5 cards in the hand needs to have the same suit. Now, there are 13 different types of cards with only 5 cards being in the hand, thus

13! / 5! (13 - 5)! =

13! / 5! 8! = 1287

Now, recall that the question specifically asked us not to include any straight. There are 10 straights that can be gotten, and thus, we subtract it.

1287 - 10 = 1277

Since there are 4 suits, the probability of getting a flush is

1277 * 4 / 2598560 =

5108 / 2598560 = 0.001966
