Twelve people each have a standard deck of cards. Each person shuffles the deck and draws two cards (without replacement). Anyon

e who draws at least one diamond wins a prize. To the nearest whole number, about how many of the twelve will win a prize? What is the probability that at least one person will win a prize? (Answer correct to four decimal places.) What is the probability that two people will win a prize?

Answer:

5

0.9990

0.0401

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Probability(diamond) = 13/52 = 1/4

Probability(not diamond) = 1 - 1/4 = 3/4

Probability of atleast one diamond = 1 - probability of no diamonds

= 1 - (¾ × ¾) = 1 - 9/16 = 7/16

Expected no. = np = 12 × 7/16

= 5.25 = 5 (nearest whole no.)

2) let X be the no. of people winning the prize.

Then X ~ B(12, 7/16)

[ X follows a Binomial Distribution with 12 trials and probability of success (winning prize) = 7/16 ]

P(atleast 1 winning) = 1 - P(X=0)

= 1 - (9/16)^12

= 0.9989966087

= 0.9990 (4 dp)

3) P(X=2) = 12C2 × (7/16)² × (9/16)^10

= 0.0400613268

= 0.0401 (4 dp)

Leokris [45]

Answer:

d\approx 16.16\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Distance Between two Points in the Plane</u>

Given two points A(x,y) and B(w,z), the distance between them is:

d=\sqrt{(z-y)^2+(w-x)^2}

The triangle formed by the points N (7,3), 0(-8, -3), and  P(-8,-8) is shown in the image provided.

We are required to find the distance between N and O:

d=\sqrt{(-3-3)^2+(-8-7)^2}

d=\sqrt{(-6)^2+(-15)^2}

d=\sqrt{36+225}

d=\sqrt{261}

Since 261=9*29:

d=3\sqrt{29}

\mathbf{d\approx 16.16\ units}

BartSMP [9]
To calculate time at t= 2 minutes. We substitute at t = 2. 
h = 10.5 + 6.5 sin(850t) 
h = 10.5 + 6.5 sin (850 * 2) 
h = 10.5 - 6.4012 = 4.1 feet 
Hence at time t = 2, height = 4.1 feet.

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

<h2>1.5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two points. Let the points be A and B

A ( 8 , -2 ) ------> ( x1 , y1 )

B ( 12 , 4 ) ------> ( x2 , y2 )

Now, let's find the slope of the given points:

slope \:  =  \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

plug the values

=  \frac{4 - ( -2)}{12 - 8}

When there is a ( - ) in front of an expression in parentheses , change the sign of each term in the expression

=  \frac{4 + 2}{12 - 8}

Subtract the numbers

=  \frac{4  + 2}{4}

Add the numbers

=  \frac{6}{4}

Reduce the fraction with 2

=  \frac{3}{2}

= 1.5

Hope this helps..

Best regards!!
