We can use the distributive property to set up an expression that is equal to this problem.
14 times 8 is 112
14 times -6 is -84x
14 times 12 is 168
(If you don't know the distributive property ask and I can explain it)
We can combine that together to get:
112 +168 -84x
Or, condense it further:
280-84x is equivalent to 14(8-6x+12)
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Let's say that we don't have jokers. In that case, there are 52 cards, and half of them are red (so 26 are red). The probability of pulling a red card once is 1/2 since half the cards are red.
If we pick one out, there are only 51 total cards left and 25 red cards. So, the probability of picking one again would be 25/51.
We multiply the probabilities of these two events to find the probability of them both happening.
1/2×25/51=25/102
The probability of picking two red cards in a row is 25/102 or around 24.5%.
Have a wonderful day! :D
I use an app called Socratic also it works very well!!
I think the answer is x= 11 but im not sure <span />
