<span>26 black cards of out 52
probability that a black card is chosen first = 26/52 = 1/2
</span>there are 13 heart
with replaced
The probability of then drawing a heart is 13/52 = 1/4 then
<span>the probability that a black card is chosen first and a heart is chosen second
= </span>(1/2)(1/4) = 1/8
answer
1/8
The common denominator is already there 12 is the common denominator!! :)
Set up two equations:
1st: P (for Price family) + J (for Jenkins family) = 45 hours
2nd: 20P + 35J = 1200 liters
Rewrite the first equation as P = 45 – J
Replace P in the second equation:
20(45-J) + 35J = 1200
Simplify:
900 -20J + 35J = 1200
900 +15J = 1200
Subtract 900 from both sides:
15J = 300
Divide both sides by 15:
J = 300/15
J = 20
Jenkins used theirs for 20 hours
Price used theirs for 45-20 = 25 hours.
60 points! Because 8 questions wrong would be - 40 points and its out of 100 points so 60 points
