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.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you add a zero to the ones place to level the numbers out it should look like this
and count the numbers from 0.325 to 0.350
Answer:
term 25
Step-by-step explanation:
a is the number added from 3 to 8 is 5(must be constant like 8 to 13 is also 5
b is the zero term so 3-a which is 3-5=-2
C) 0.75. If 6/8 of the gifts were toys, that’s 3/4 which equals 75%.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of one white chocolate pretzel.
Let y represent the cost of one dark chocolate pretzel.
Rico bought 4 white chocolate pretzels and 6 dark chocolate pretzels for $10.50. This means that
4x + 6y = 10.5 - - - - - - - - - - -1
Holden bought 8 white chocolate and 3 dark chocolate pretzels for $9.75. This means that
8x + 3y = 9.75 - - - - - - - - - 2
Multiplying equation 1 by 8 and equation 2 by 4, it becomes
32x + 48y = 84
32x + 12y = 39
Subtracting, it becomes
36y = 45
y = 45/36 = $1.25
Substituting y = 1.25 into equation 1, it becomes
4x + 6 × 1.25 = 10.5
4x + 7.5 = 10.5
4x = 10.5 - 7.5 = 3
x = 3/4 = $0.75
the total cost for 6 white chocolate pretzels and one dark chocolate pretzel would be
6 × 0.75 + 1 × 1.25 = 4.5 + 1.25 = $5.75
