Answer:

x=5, y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to multiply both sides of the second equation by -1 so that you can proceed the elimination process. Like this...

x + y = 6

x - 4y = 1

x + y = 6

-x + 4y =- 1

Now you can eliminate the x variable by addition process. It becomes like this...

x + y = 6

-x + 4y =- 1

5y=5

y = 1

Now, let's proceed substitution process. You can substitute the value of y into any equation that you want. I want to put the value of y into the equation of x + y = 6 .

When y=1, substitute into x + y = 6

x + 1 = 6

x = 6-1

x = 5

Hooray! Now you have the value of x and y.

x= 1 and y=5.

I hope you will understand my explanation. Bye!

Back to the cards! In poker, a flush is when all five cards are the same suit. Find the probability of being dealt a flush (when
12345 [234]
<span> a) 13 we know that the number of clubs in the deck/52 that the total number of cards in the deck =0 .25= 25%.
b) 12 the remaining number of clubs in the deck/51 the remaining number of cards in the deck = 0.235= 23.5%.
c) 11 same as above/50 the same as above = 0.22= 22%
d) 10/49 = 20.4%
e) 9/48 = 18.75%
f) The combinations that can be made with certain characteristics are limited to say: ace of clubs to 12 other clubs, two of clubs to 12 other clubs, three of clubs to 12 other clubs, etc. As the desired outcome is reached, the probable outcome percentages must be multiplied together to accommodate all combinations. the probability is .049%.
g) probability of dealt a flush is 13*12*11*10*9*4/52*51*50*49*48 = 617,760/311,875,200 = 0.00198079232, or 0.2% when round up. This is any of the 13 cards needed in a particular suit, times any of the remaining 12, times any of the remaining 11 after that, and so on multiplied by 4 since there are four suits in which this can occur. This is divided by the number of cards in the deck 52 times the remaining cards when that's drawn, and so on and so forth. </span>
