Answer:

The probability that the last card dealt is an ace is \frac{1}{13}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A deck of ordinary cards is shuffled and 13 cards are dealt.

To find : What is the probability that the last card dealt is an ace?

Solution :

There are total 52 cards.

The total arrangement of cards is 52!.

There is 4 ace cards in total.

Arrangement for containing ace as the 13th card is 4\times 51!.

The probability that the last card dealt is an ace is

P=\frac{4\times 51!}{52!}

P=\frac{4\times 51!}{52\times 51!}

P=\frac{4}{52}

P=\frac{1}{13}

Therefore, the probability that the last card dealt is an ace is \frac{1}{13}.

Which values of a and b make this system of equations have infinitely many solutions?
Afina-wow [57]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a = 3, b = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving the first equation for y, we get ...

  2y +16 = 6x . . . . . given

  y = 8 +3x . . . . . . . divide by 2

  y = 3x -8 . . . . . . . subtract 8

In order for the system of equations to have infinitely many solutions, the second equation must be the same as this:

  y = ax +b

  a = 3, b = -8

When a coin is tossed it is either heads or tails. Suppose heads has a point value of 1 and tails a point value of -1. if the su
zvonat [6]

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

Totally there are 50 tosses.  

Let the number of tosses which resulted head be x.  

Therefore the number of tosses which resulted tail is 50−x.

We get x×1+(50−x)×(−1)=14

x−(50−x)=14

x−50+x=14

x=32

A computer moniter is solid by the diagonal length of the screen a computer monitor has a 15 inch screen the screen has a width
n200080 [17]
For this problem, you would use the Pythagorean Theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)

A and B are the length and width of the triangle. The triangle is created by the diagonal line splitting the computer screen. C is the hypotenuse, which is the diagonal line, and will always be the longest side of the triangle. 

When we plug in the numbers into the formula, we would get this:

13^2 + b^2 = 15^2

B is the unknown variable in which we are trying to find.
First, you square 13 and 15:

169 + b^2 = 225

Then, subtract 169 from both sides:

b^2 = 56

Finally, find the square root of both sides:

b = 7.483314774

Simplify to the nearest tenth, and the answer is 7.5<span />
