A card is drawn at random from a deck. what is the probability that it is an ace or a king?

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

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + 2(6x + 9) = 170

2(6x + 9) = 12x + 18

7x + 12x + 18 = 170

19x = 152

152/19 = 8

x = 8

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

P(\text{Powdered sugar donut})=\dfrac{1}{15} .

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Wendy's mother recorded how many donuts she has eaten over the past few months.

Jelly-filled donuts = 6

Maple donuts = 53  

Glazed donuts = 11  

Powdered sugar donuts = 5

Now,

Total number of donuts = 6 + 53 + 11 + 5 = 75

We need to find the experimental probability that the next donut Wendy eats will be a powdered sugar donut.

P(\text{Powdered sugar donut})=\dfrac{\text{Powdered sugar donuts}}{\text{Total number of donuts}}

P(\text{Powdered sugar donut})=\dfrac{5}{75}

P(\text{Powdered sugar donut})=\dfrac{1}{15}

Therefore, P(\text{Powdered sugar donut})=\dfrac{1}{15}.

Write the equation for g (x)
belka [17]

Answer:

g(x) = (-1/25)x + (203/25)

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation for a line is slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept.

We know that perpendicular lines have opposite-signed, reciprocal slopes of the original line. Therefore, if the slope of f(x) is m = 25, the slope of g(x) must be m = (-1/25).

To find the y-intercept, we can use the newfound slope and the values from the given point to isolate "b".

g(x) = mx + b                                    <----- General equation

g(x) = (-1/25)x + b                             <----- Plug (-1/25) in "m"

8 = (-1/25)(3) + b                               <----- Plug in "x" and "y" from point

8 = (-3/25) + b                                  <----- Multiply (1/25) and 3

200/25 = (-3/25) + b                       <----- Covert 8 to a fraction

203/25 = b                                      <----- Add (3/25) to both sides

Now that we know both the values of the slope and y-intercept, we can construct the equation of g(x).

g(x) = (-1/25)x + (203/25)
