a. There are four 5s that can be drawn, and \binom43=4 ways of drawing any three of them. There are \binom{52}3=22,100 ways of drawing any three cards from the deck. So the probability of drawing three 5s is

\dfrac{\binom43}{\binom{52}3}=\dfrac4{22,100}=\dfrac1{5525}\approx0.00018

In case you're asked about the probability of drawing a 3 or a 5 (and NOT three 5s), then there are 8 possible cards (four each of 3 and 5) that interest you, with a probability of \frac8{52}=\frac2{13}\approx0.15 of getting drawn.

b. Similar to the second case considered in part (a), there are now 12 cards of interest with a probability \frac{12}{52}=\frac3{13}\approx0.23 of being drawn.

c. There are four 6s in the deck, and thirteen diamonds, one of which is a 6. That makes 4 + 13 - 1 = 16 cards of interest (subtract 1 because the 6 of diamonds is being double counted by the 4 and 13), hence a probability of \frac{16}{52}=\frac4{13}\approx0.31.

Note: \binom nk is the binomial coefficient,

\dbinom nk=\dfrac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}={}_nC_k=C(n,k)=n\text{ choose }k

Give two systems of equations that would be easier to solve by substitution than by elimination. Then give two systems that woul
Daniel [21]
These techniques for elimination are preferred for 3rd order systems and higher. They use "Row-Reduction" techniques/pivoting and many subtle math tricks to reduce a matrix to either a solvable form or perhaps provide an inverse of a matrix (A-1)of linear equation AX=b. Solving systems of linear equations (n>2) by elimination is a topic unto itself and is the preferred method. As the system of equations increases, the "condition" of a matrix becomes extremely important. Some of this may sound completely alien to you. Don't worry about these topics until Linear Algebra when systems of linear equations (Rank 'n') become larger than 2.
