Answer:

1/5525 ≈ 0.018%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 kings in a standard deck of 52 cards.

The probability that the first card is a king is 4/52.

The probability that the second card is also a king is 3/51 (the first king isn't replaced, so there's one less king and one less card in the deck).

The probability that the third card is a king is 2/50.

The probability of choosing 3 king cards is therefore:

P = (4/52) (3/51) (2/50)

P = (1/13) (1/17) (1/25)

P = 1/5525

P ≈ 0.018%

When Emily woke up, the temperature was 8 degrees F. By noon, the temperature had risen by 3 degrees F. It rose another 6 degree
Vadim26 [7]
The temperature when Emily went to bed was -4°F.
Step-by-step explanation:
8°F + 3°F = 11°F (noon)
The temperature had risen by 3°F by noon. This means to add 3.
noon + 6°F = the day's high temperature
11°F + 6°F = 17°F (the day's high temperature)
The temperature rose another 6°F in the afternoon. This means add 6 to the temperature from noon.
high temperature - 21°F = temperature at bed
17°F - 21°F = -4°F
The temperature dropped by 21°F when Emily went to bed. This means to subtract 21 from the day's high temperature.
Risen, rose, and increase mean addition.
Decrease, dropped, and decline mean subtraction.
Hope this helps :)
