3 cards are chosen at random from a standard 52-card deck. what is the probability that they form a pair? (a 3-card hand is a 'p

air' if two of the cards match in rank but the third card is different. for example, 668 is a pair, but 999 is not.)

Hello!

First of all, we have a 4/52, or 1/13 chance of selecting a pair. Then, we select 1/3 cards 3 times, so we use this as our other fraction.

\frac{1}{13}\cdot \frac{1}{3}=\frac{1}{39}

Therefore, we have a 1/39 or about 3%.

I hope this helps!

The area of the triangle is 33.6 square inches. If the h eyesight of the triangle is 4 inches what is the length of the base
DerKrebs [107]
Using the formula for the area of a triangle we can solve for the base.

The formula for area of a triangle is : Area = 1/2 x base x height

We are given the area and the height:

33.6 = 1/2 x 4 x base

Multiply both sides by 2 to remove the 1/2:

67.2 = 4 x base

Divide both sides by 4 to solve for the base:

67.2 /4 = 16.8
 
Check: Area = 1/2 x 4 x 16.8 = 33.6

The base is 16.8 inches.
