probability that the card drawn is:

  1. an ace or a king  = 0.1538
  2. a king or a diamond = 0.3269

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , A card is drawn at random from a deck of 52 playing cards. We need to find that Find the probability that the card drawn is:

  • an ace or a king

A deck of standard 52 cards contain four aces. There are four kings in a standard deck of playing cards. So ,we need to find probability that card drawn is either a ace or king i.e.

probability = \frac{Number-of-(ace+king)-cards}{total-number-of-cards}

⇒ probability = \frac{Number-of-(ace+king)-cards}{total-number-of-cards}

⇒ probability = \frac{8}{52}

⇒ probability = 0.1538

  • a king or a diamond

A deck of standard 52 cards contain four kings. There are 13 Diamonds in a standard deck of playing cards. So ,we need to find probability that card drawn is either a ace or king i.e.

probability = \frac{Number-of-(ace+king)-cards}{total-number-of-cards}

⇒ probability = \frac{Number-of-(ace+king)-cards}{total-number-of-cards}

⇒ probability = \frac{(13+4=17)}{52}

⇒ probability = \frac{(17)}{52}

⇒ probability =0.3269

Therefore, probability that the card drawn is:

  1. an ace or a king  = 0.1538
  2. a king or a diamond = 0.3269

a) The probability of drawing an ace or king =  \frac{2}{13}

b) The probability of drawing a diamond or king =  \frac{4}{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Total number of cards in the deck = 52

We need to compute probability that card drawn is

a) ace or king

b) King or diamond

Step 2 :

a)

Number of ace in the pack = 4

Number of kings in the pack = 4

Hence the probability of selecting an ace or king =  \frac{8}{52} [total favorable divided by the total outcome] = \frac{2}{13}

Step 3:

b)

Number of king in the card deck = 4

Number of diamond in the card deck = 13

Number of diamond cards which is a king = 1

Total number of cards that can be drawn ( king or diamond) = 4 + 13 - 1 = 16

Hence probability that a diamond or king is drawn =  \frac{16}{52}  [total favorable divided by the total outcome]  =  \frac{4}{13}

Step 4 :

Answer :

a) The probability that card drawn is an ace or king =  \frac{2}{13}

b) The probability that card drawn is a diamond or king =  \frac{4}{13}

What is y=1/2x+4 in standard form?
zhuklara [117]
<h3>Answer:  x-2y = -8</h3>

===========================================

Explanation:

Multiply both sides by 2 to clear out the fraction

y = (1/2)x+4

2y = 2[ (1/2)x + 4 ]

2y = 2*(1/2)x + 2*4

2y = x + 8

Then move the x term over to the left side

2y = x+8

2y-x = 8

-x+2y = 8

Optionally we can multiply both sides by -1

-x+2y = 8

-1*(-x+2y) = -1*8

x-2y = -8

This is in standard form Ax+By = C with A = 1, B = -2, C = -8

The reason why I multiplied both sides by -1 was to make A > 0 which is what some textbooks use as convention. Of course -x+2y = 8 is equally valid too.

Answer:

Volume (V) = 2522.0 mm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of cylinder is :

V = π r 2 h

We know that the height (h) is 19.

We also know the radius (r) is 13/2 = 6.5

So,

V = π 6.5^2*19

V = 2522.0 mm^3
