Dhani has 4 cards numbered 1 through 4. He removes 2 cards at random and adds their values.
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of sums (not distinct) is 4\cdot 3=12, because we're removing without replacement.

Count the sums that fit the stipulation (sum \leq 5):

1,2,\\2,1\\1,3\\3,1\\1, 4\\4, 1\\2, 3, \\3,2

There are 8 sums that work. Therefore, the desired answer is \frac{8}{12}=\boxed{\frac{2}{3}}

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

3.39 + 0.59x

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of a dish of ice cream = $3.39

Cost of toppings = $0.59 each

x = number of toppings

which expression can be used to determine the total charge in dollars, for a dish of ice cream with x toppings

Total charge for a dish of ice cream with x toppings = 3.39 + 0.59x

The expression is 3.39 + 0.59x

A map is made of a park. The scale from the park to the map is 36 mi to 6 cm. The length of Great Oaks Trail is 4.5 cm on this m
Ilya [14]

Answer:

Salamander Trail is longer than Great Oak Trail

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The scale of the map is 36 mi = 6 cm

The length of Great Oak Trail = 4.5 cm

The scale of a different map is 24 mi = 3 cm

The length of Salamander Trail = 3.5 cm

Therefore, we have;

The actual length of Great Oak Trail based on the first map is given as follows;

36 mi = 6 cm

6 cm = 36 mi

1 cm = 36 mi/6 = 6 mi

4.5 cm = 4.5 × 6 mi = 27 mi

The actual length of Salamander Trail based on the second  map is given as follows;

24 mi = 3 cm

3 cm = 24 mi

1 cm = 24 mi/3 = 8 mi

3.5 cm = 3.5 × 8 mi = 28 mi

Therefore, Salamander Trail with an actual length of 28 mi is longer than Great Oak Trail which has an actual length of 27 mi.
