Answer:
P = 1 / 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:-
- A deck has 500 cards
- Numbered from 1-500
Find:-
you are asked to pick three cards, one at a time, what's the probability of each subsequent card being larger than the previous drawn card
Solution:-
- Suppose we draw three cards. We don't care what they actually are, irrespective of number.
- Let the three numbers be a, b, c: Such that:
a < b < c.
- The total possible combinations with 3 numbered cards will be:
a b c
b a c
a c b
b a c
b c a
c a b
- We have 6 possibilities for 3 numbered cards. So the probability of of each subsequent card being larger than the previous drawn card would be:
P = 1 / possible combinations
P = 1 / 6
Answer:
7 donkeys
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
A system consisting of donkeys and tourists
Heads = 50
Legs = 114
Required
Calculate number of donkeys.
Represent donkeys with D and tourists with T.
By means of identification; donkeys and tourists (human) both have 1 head.
This implies that
Number of Heads = D + T
50 = D + T ----- Equation 1
While each donkey have 4 legs, each tourists have 2 legs.
This implies that
Number of legs = 4D + 2T
114 = 4D + 2T ---- Multiply both sides by ½
114 * ½ = (4D + 2T) * ½
57 = 4D * ½ + 2T * ½
57 = 2D + T ----- Equation 2
Subtract equation 1 from 2
57 = 2D + T
- (50 = D + T)
---------------------
57 - 50 = 2D - D + T - T
7 = D
Recall that D represents the number of donkeys.
So, D = 7 implies that
The total number of donkeys are 7
Answer:
a mix with a total cost of x=$73.
Of course, 30 pounds (50 pounds - 20 pounds = 30 pounds) of that mix will be the more expensive ground beef.
A whole hour or revolution is 60 minutes and 360° so the area of a sector is:
A/πr^2=α/360
A=απr^2/360...now we need to find the angle α/360=5/60, α=30° so:
A=30πr^2/360
A=πr^2/12 and r=11.25ft so
A=11.25^2*π/12
A≈33.13 ft^2
