How many ways can you choose the 5 cards out of a 52 card deck?

If you take all the possible 5 card draws, and multiply that by the probability all 5 cards are hearts, the result is all the possible 5 heart draws.

The number of ways to draw 5 cards from 52 is a combination...52C5. Remember the formula for combinations:

nCk = n! / (k! * (n-k)!. In this case n=52 and k=5:

52!/(5!*(52-5)!)= 52!/(5!*47!) = (52*51*50*49*48)/(5*4*3*2*1) = 2,598,960.

That's the total number of five-card combinations. But what is the probability that all five cards are hearts? There are 13 hearts in the deck of 52 cards.

P card 1 being a heart is 13/52.

<span>P card 2 being a heart (there are one less card and one less heart) is 12/51
</span>
<span>P card 3: 11/50

P card 4: 10/49

P card 5: 9/48
</span>

The probability of all five events is the product of their probabilities:

13/52 * 12/51 * 11/50 * 10/49 * 9/48 = 0.000495198079231693.

The number of combinations of five cards, times the probability of all five hearts, gives us the answer we want.

0.000495198079231693*2,598,960=1,287.

What is the equation in point-slope form of the line passing through (-1,3) and (1, 7)?
amid [387]

Answer:

<h3>y - 3 = 2(x+1)</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in point slope form is expressed as;

y - y0 = m(x-x0)

m is the slope

(x0, y0) is a point on the line

Get the slope;

Given the points (-1,3) and (1, 7)

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = 7-3/1+1

m = 4/2

m = 2

Substitute the point m = 2 and the point (-1, 3) into the formula above as shown;

y - y0 = m(x-x0)

y - 3 = 2(x-(-1))

y - 3 = 2(x+1)

Hence the required equation is y - 3 = 2(x+1)

Which polynomial is in standard form? A) 26x^5+12x^7-8x^3+6x
Bess [88]
It's C.  In order to be in standard form you have to have all your exponents in descending order.  They don't all have to be there in order, the ones that are just have to go from highest to lowest.
