Answer:

\frac{3}{6}+\frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, we have to sum each pair of cable and see which one results in 20/24.

\frac{3}{6}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{12+6}{24}=\frac{18}{24}=\frac{3}{4}

\frac{3}{6}+\frac{1}{3}=\frac{9+6}{18}=\frac{15}{18}=\frac{5}{6}

\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{3}=\frac{3+4}{12}=\frac{7}{12}

Now, if we simply 20/24, we have:

\frac{20}{24}=\frac{10}{12}=\frac{5}{6}

As you can see, the answer is the second sum above, because they have the same basic fraction.

Therefore, the answer is

\frac{3}{6}+\frac{1}{3}

Answer:

3/6 + 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

20/24 can be devided top and bottom by 4 which would equal 5/6, if you add 3/6 + 1/3 also equals 5/6.

Find the value of x.<br> Right triangle: Hypotenuse is 11, base is x, angle is 22 degrees.
kirill [66]
We know that the trigonometric identity that uses the adjacent side and the hypotenuse is cosine. We can set this up as:
cos(22) =  \frac{x}{11}

We need to solve for x, so let's isolate it:
x = 11cos(22) = 10.2

So, x = 10.2 units

Cards. A deck of 52 cards is shuffled and dealt. Find the probabilities of the following events: a) the tenth card is a queen; b
Veronika [31]

Answer:

  • 0.0374
  • 0.0010

Step-by-step explanation:

number of cards = 52

number of queen = 4

number of spades = 13

A) probability that the tenth card is a queen

drawn time (r) = 1

position of success(x) = 10th

p = 4/52

P( x,r,p) = x-1Cr-1*p^(r) * q^(x-r)

p(10,1,4/52) = 9C0(4/52)^1 * (48/52)^9 = 0.0374

B) probability the twentieth card is a spade

x = 20

r = 1

p = 13 / 52

P(20,1,26/52) = 19C0(26/52)^1 * (26/52)^19 = 0.0010

c)  The last five cards been spades

p(last five cards been spades )

p(48..52, 5, 13/52 ) = 47...52C4(13/52)^5 * (39/52)^48..52 - 5
