Bill has a set of 6 black cards and a set of 6 red cards. Each card has a number from 1 through 6, such that each of the numbers

1 through 6 appears on 1 black card and 1 red card. Bill likes to play a game in which he shuffles all 12 cards, turns over 4 cards, and looks for pairs of cards that have the same value. What is the chance that Bill finds at least one pair of cards that have the same value?

Answer:

\frac{17}{33}

Explanation:

The probability of finding at least on pair is equal to 1 minus the probability of finding no pair. If x represents the number of pairs obtained in a game we have that:

P(x\geq 1)=1-P(x=0)

Now lets consider the a game in which no pairs are obtained. The first card can be any, so we have 12 out 12 cards. The second card can't be the one matching the first card, so we have 10 out of 11. Similarly for the 3rd and 4th cards, we obtain:

P(x=0)=\frac{12}{12} \frac{10}{11} \frac{8}{10} \frac{6}{9} =\frac{16}{33}

This results in

P(x\geq 1)=1-\frac{16}{33}=\frac{17}{33}

(Numerical problems) A car is running with the velocity of 72km/h. What will be it's velocity after 5s if it's acceleration is -
kodGreya [7K]

The car's velocity after 5s : 10 m/s

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

velocity=v=72 km/h=20 m/s

time=t = 5 s

acceleration=a = -2 m/s²

Required

velocity after 5s

Solution

Straight motion changes with constant acceleration

\tt v_f=v_i+at

vf=final velocity

vi = initial velocity

Input the value :

\tt v_f=20+(-2).5\\\\v_f=20-10\\\\v_f=10~m/s

The car is decelerating (acceleration is negative) so that its speed decreases

Suppose a large atom bonds with a small
Zielflug [23.3K]
A large atom means that the radius would be large, meaning that the effective nuclear charge is low, therefore a lower electronegativity based on the periodic table. A smaller atom would mean the opposite, therefore a higher electronegativity. This combination would mean that the new molecule is polar.

Also, to answer your question, it would be most likely different from both atoms, as size doesn't really matter in a compound's properties.
