There are 52 cards in a deck.

First we find the probability of drawing a 2

There are 4 cards that shows 2

Probability of drawing a 2 card fro 52 cards = 4 / 52

We know that P( not A) = 1 - P(A)

So the probability (not dealt a 2) = 1 - probability (dealt a 2)

= 1 - 4/52

= (52 - 4)/ 52 = 48/52

Now we simplify the fraction

48/ 52 = 12/13

Hence, the probability( not dealt a 2) = 12/13

The slope of the line below is -2. Use the coordinates of the labeled point to

Vilka [71]

Answer:

We can express the equation for any linear equation with slope -2 and point (x0,y0) as:

$y=-2x+(y_0+2x_0)\\\\y-y_0=-2(x-x_0)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Incomplete question:

There is no point to complete the equation.

As we have no point to complete the linear equation, we will solve for any given point (x0,y0) and a slope of m=-2.

The linear equation can be written generically as:

$y(x)=mx+b\\\\y(x)=-2x+b$

If a point, like (x0,y0) belongs to the linear equation, it satisfies its equation. Then:

$y_0=-2x_0+b$

Then, we can calculate b as:

$y_0=-2x_0+b\\\\b=y_0+2x_0$

We can express the equation for any linear equation with slope -2 and point (x0,y0) as:

$y=-2x+(y_0+2x_0)\\\\y-y_0=-2(x-x_0)$

Solve for x. Help ASAP please!!!

sattari [20]

Answer:

The value of x is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right triangle, if a segment is drawn from the right angle ⊥ to the hypotenuse like the given figure, then

∵ The length of one side of the right triangle = (x + 2)

∵ The length of the hypotenuse = x + 5

∴ (x + 2)² = x (x + 5)

∵ (x + 2)² = (x + 2)(x + 2)

∴ (x + 2)(x + 2) = x(x + 5)

→ Simplify the two sides

∵ (x)(x) + (x)(2) + (2)(x) + (2)(2) = (x)(x) + (x)(5)

∴ x² + 2x + 2x + 4 = x² + 5x

→ Add the like terms in the left side

∴ x² + 4x + 4 = x² + 5x

→ Subtract x² from both sides

∵ x² - x² + 4x + 4 = x² - x² + 5x

∴ 4x + 4 = 5x

→ Subtract 4x from both sides

∴ 4x - 4x + 4 = 5x - 4x

∴ 4 = x

∴ The value of x is 4

How is adding positive and negative fractions similar to adding intergers ?

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

When you are adding or subtracting a negative fraction, you usually want to consider the numerator as negative. The method is just the same, except now you may need to add negative or positive numerators. Example 1: ... To add the fractions with unlike denominators, rename the fractions with a common denominator.

Jayden has $1.20 worth of nickels and dimes. He has twice as many nickels as dimes. Determine the number of nickels and the numb

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Total number of dimes=6

Total number of nickels=12

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression for the total value of money Jayden has is;

Nickels have a value of= $0.05

Dimes have a value of= $0.10

Total value=(value of nickels×number of nickels)+(value of dimes×number of dimes)

where;

Total value=$1.20

Value of a nickel=$0.05

number of nickels=y, but y=2 x

Value of a dime=0.10

number of dimes=x

replacing;

1.20=(0.05×2 x)+(0.1×x)

0.1 x+0.1 x=1.2

0.2 x=1.2

x=1.2/0.2

x=6

y=2 x=2×6=12

Total number of dimes=6

Total number of nickels=12
