The probability of the person be set to sit in an aisle seat is 8/12.
Answer:
0.45% probability that they are both queens.
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes
The combinations formula is important in this problem:
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

Desired outcomes
You want 2 queens. Four cards are queens. I am going to call then A,B,C,D. A and B is the same outcome as B and A. That is, the order is not important, so this is why we use the combinations formula.
The number of desired outcomes is a combinations of 2 cards from a set of 4(queens). So

Total outcomes
Combinations of 2 from a set of 52(number of playing cards). So

What is the probability that they are both queens?

0.45% probability that they are both queens.
Answer:
perpendicular
Step-by-step explanation:
start but putting each line into the standard line format
2x-y=-5
-y=-2x-5
y=2x+5
x+2y=-6
2y=-x-6
y=-(1/2)x-3
if lines are parallel the slopes would be the same. 2 is not equal to -1/2
if lines are perpendicular the slope of one would be the opposite inverse of the other.
negative inverse of 2 = - (1/2)
so the lines are perpendicular
Answer:
a=8
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use ratios of similar triangles to solve
The smaller triangle has sides a and 12 and the larger triangle has sides a+a+4 and 12+18 which combine to 2a+4 and 30
a 2a +4
--------- = -----------
12 30
Using cross products
30a = 12(2a+4)
30a = 24a +48
Subtract 24a from each side
30a -24a = 24a-24a +48
6a = 48
Divide each sdie by 6
6a/6 =48/6
a =8
