Answer:
The correct answer has already been given (twice). I'd like to present two solutions that expand on (and explain more completely) the reasoning of the ones already given.
One is using the hypergeometric distribution, which is meant exactly for the type of problem you describe (sampling without replacement):
P(X=k)=(Kk)(N−Kn−k)(Nn)
where N is the total number of cards in the deck, K is the total number of ace cards in the deck, k is the number of ace cards you intend to select, and n is the number of cards overall that you intend to select.
P(X=2)=(42)(480)(522)
P(X=2)=61326=1221
In essence, this would give you the number of possible combinations of drawing two of the four ace cards in the deck (6, already enumerated by Ravish) over the number of possible combinations of drawing any two cards out of the 52 in the deck (1326). This is the way Ravish chose to solve the problem.
Another way is using simple probabilities and combinations:
P(X=2)=(4C1∗152)∗(3C1∗151)
P(X=2)=452∗351=1221
The chance of picking an ace for the first time (same as the chance of picking any card for the first time) is 1/52, multiplied by the number of ways you can pick one of the four aces in the deck, 4C1. This probability is multiplied by the probability of picking a card for the second time (1/51) times the number of ways to get one of the three remaining aces (3C1). This is the way Larry chose to solve the this.

Answer:
x = -33
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the midpoint add the two points and divide by 2
(x+27)/2 = -3
Multiply each side by 2
(x+27)/2 *2= -3*2
x+27 = -6
Subtract 27 from each side
x+27-27 = -6 -27
x = -33
Note that one side is 20 ft, and the other is 16.
This means that the side that is part of the triangle is 4 ft.
The measurement is still the same for the triangle's height.
Find the area of the rectangle:
24 x 16 = 384
Find the area of the triangle:
4 x 24 = 96
Add the two numbers together:
384 + 96 = 480
You're answer is (C)

Answer:Take the alternating sum of the digits in the number, read from left to right. If that is divisible by 11, so is the original number. So, for instance, 2728 has alternating sum of digits 2 – 7 + 2 – 8 = -11. Since -11 is divisible by 11, so is 2728.

2 and 14/15
Because the first step of subtraction is common denominators
