Answer:
A. 1/2.
B. 15/26.
Step-by-step explanation:
Note when you have an 'OR' in the statement we <u>add </u>the probabilities.
A . Club or a diamond . There are 13 clubs and 13 diamonds so
The Required Probability = 13/52 + 13/52
= 1/4 + 1/4 = 1/2.
B. There are 4 jacks and 26 black cards.
The Required Probability = 4/52 + 26/52
= 1/13 + 1/2
= 2/26 + 13/26
= 15/26.
64/9 as a mixed number is 7 1/9
Answer:
3 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to subtract the two numbers to find the difference in speeds
4/5 - 3/4
We need to get a common denominator of 20
4/5 *4/4 - 3/4 *5/5
16/20 - 15/20
1/20
The car going 4/5 miles per minute is going 1/20 miles per minute faster than the car going 3/4 miles per minute.
The question asks for miles per hour, not miles per minute. We know that there are 60 minutes per hour.
1/20 miles per minute * 60 minutes / hour
60/20 miles/hour
3 miles/ hour
The car going 4/5 miles per minute is going 3 miles per hour faster than the car going 3/4 miles per minute.
You would use cross multiplication:
X/2,000 = 3/5
Multiply: 2,000*3= 6,000
Divide: 6,000/5
Answer: 1,200 doctors use brand x
