There are 52 cards. Of this, there are 4 aces (one of each of the four suits) and 4 kings. There are 4+4 = 8 cards that are either an ace or a king (but not both). Note that the events "drawing an ace" and "drawing a king" are mutually exclusive. Being mutually exclusive means its impossible to have both events occur simultaneously for any single card.

So there are 8 cards we want (ace or king) out of 52 total

Dividing the two values, and reducing fully, gives:
8/52 = (4*2)/(4*13) = 2/13

The final answer as a fraction is 2/13

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

option C

c. least: $101

greatest: $1001

Step-by-step explanation:

A radio station advertises a contest with ten cash prizes totaling $5510. There is to be a $100 difference between each successive prize.

Sum of 10 prizes = 5510

100 is the difference. there is a common difference d=100

So its a arithmetic sequence

the sum formula for arithmetic sequence is

S_n = \frac{n}{2}(2a_1 +(n-1)d)

Sn = 5510, n=10 n d= 100 we need to find out first term a1

5510 = \frac{10}{2}(2a_1 +(10-1)100)

5510 = 5 (2a1 + 900)

5510 = 10a1 + 4500

Subtract 4500 on both sides

1010= 10a1

divide by 10 on both sides

a1 = 101

so first term that is least term is 101

To find out greatest term we use formula

a_n = a_1 + (n-1) d

a(10) = 101 + (10-1)100

= 101 + 900= 1001

greatest is 1001
