Answer:

There are 52 cards in a deck. The total number of outcomes possible when picking 2 cards and replacing them is 52 * 52 = 2704.

There are 4 10s and 4 aces so the total number of successful outcomes = 4 * 4 = 16.

Probability = 16 / 2704 = 1 / 169

The volume of the sphere is 500/3 pie cubic units . what is the value of X?

lilavasa [31]

Volume=4/3 pi r^3. so 4/3 pi r^3 = 500/3 pi. Therefore, divide by pi, and multiply by 3, you get 4r^3=500. Divide by 4 to get r^3=125, and cube root to result in 25. r=25.

Find an equation of the circle that satisfies the given conditions.

hodyreva [135]

The equation of a circle:
$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$
(h,k) - the coordinates of the centre
r - the radius

The midpoint of the diameter is the centre of a circle.
The coordinates of the midpoint:
$(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})$
(x₁,y₁), (x₂,y₂) - the coordinates of endpoints

$P(-1,1) \\
x_1=-1 \\ y_1=1 \\ \\ Q(5,9) \\ x_2=5 \\ y_2=9 \\ \\
\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}=\frac{-1+5}{2}=\frac{4}{2}=2 \\ \frac{y_1+y_2}{2}=\frac{1+9}{2}=\frac{10}{2}=5$

The centre of the circle is (2,5).

The radius is the distance between an endpoint of the diameter and the centre.
The formula for distance:
$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

$(-1,1) \\ x_1=-1 \\ y_1=1 \\ \\ (2,5) \\ x_2=2 \\ y_2=5 \\ \\ d=\sqrt{(2-(-1))^2+(5-1)^2}=\sqrt{3^2+4^2}=\sqrt{9+16}=\sqrt{25}=5$

The radius is 5.

$(x-2)^2+(y-5)^2=5^2 \\
\boxed{(x-2)^2+(y-5)^2=25}$

Ben wants to estimate the cost of dinner and a movie for himself and his friend. He knows the following information

Kamila [148]

Answer:

B. $3100

Step-by-step explanation:

if he's going to pay for his friend. The least expensive dinner menu is $725, for him and his friend it would be $1450. Then for the movie tickets it's $8.00 each, $16.00. $1450+$16.00=$30.50. Round that to the closest whole number, $3100.

Show that the sum of the reciprocals of three different positive integers is greater than 6 times the reciprocal of their produc

Montano1993 [528]

If a,b,c are the 3 positive integers
1/a +1/b +1/c > 6/abc
(bc+ac+ab)/abc >6/abc so
(bc+ac+ab)>6
The lowest positive integers that are different are 1,2,3 so the lowest value that (bc+ac+ab) could have is 1•2+2•3+1•3=2+6+3= 11 therefore
1/a +1/b +1/c > 6/abc is true
