Answer: (i) 1/221 (ii) 11/221 (iii) 95/663 (iv) 1/663

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) A deck of cards contains 4 Kings out of 52 total cards

1st draw: 4 Kings out of 52 total cards → 4/52 = 1/13

2nd draw: 3 remaining Kings out of 51 total remaining cards → 3/51 = 1/17

1st Draw 2nd Draw Outcome Probability

King: P(K) = 1/13 King: P(K₂/K₁) = 1/17 King, King (1/13) x (1/17) = 1/221

*************************************************************************************************

(ii) A deck of cards contains 4 Jacks, 4 Queens, & 4 Kings out of 52 total cards

1st draw: 12 Face cards out of 52 total cards → 12/52 = 3/13

2nd draw: 11 remaining Face cards out of 51 total remaining cards → 11/51

1st Draw 2nd Draw Outcome Probability

Face: P(F) = 3/13 Face: P(F₂/F₁) = 11/51 Face,Face (3/13) x (11/51) = 11/221

*************************************************************************************************

(iiI) A deck of cards contains 26 black cards out of 52 total cards but there are 2 black Jacks, 2 black Queens, and 2 black Kings.

1st draw: 20 Black (not Face) cards out of 52 total cards → 20/52 = 5/13

2nd draw: 19 remaining Black (not Face) cards out of 51 total remaining cards → 19/51

1st Draw 2nd Draw Outcome Probability

Black: P(B~) = 5/13 Black: P(B~₂/B~₁) = 19/51 B~,B~ (5/13) x (19/51) = 95/663

*************************************************************************************************

(ii) A deck of cards contains 4 Aces out of 52 total cards

1st draw: 4 Aces out of 52 total cards → 4/52 = 1/13

2nd draw: 1 Queen of Hearts out of 51 total remaining cards → 1/51

1st Draw 2nd Draw Outcome Probability

Ace: P(A) = 1/13 Qh: P(Qh₂/A₁) = 1/51 Ace,Queen(h) (1/13) x (1/51) = 1/663

Find the midpoint of the line segment defined by the points: (5, 4) and (−2, 1) (2.5, 1.5) (3.5, 2.5) (1.5, 2.5) (3.5, 1.5)

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf (1.5 , 2.5)}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint is the point that bisects a line segment or divides it into 2 equal halves. The formula is essentially finding the average of the 2 points.

$(\frac {x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac {y_1+ y_2}{2})$

In this formula, (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the 2 endpoints of the line segment. For this problem, these are (5,4 ) and (-2, 1).

x₁= 5
y₁= 4
x₂= -2
y₂= 1

Substitute these values into the formula.

$( \frac {5+ -2}{2}, \frac {4+1}{2})$

Solve the numerators.

5+ -2 = 5-2 = 3
4+1 = 5

$( \frac {3}{2}, \frac{5}{2})$

Convert the fractions to decimals.

$(1.5, 2.5)$

The midpoint of the line segment is (1.5 , 2.5)
