Five cards are selected without replacement from a pack of 52 playing cards. What is the probability of exactly 3 hearts?

1 answer:

3 0

There are 13 total hearts in the deck, which leaves 39 non-hearts. You're drawing a hand of five cards, so the probability of getting exactly 3 hearts is

$\dfrac{\binom{13}3\binom{39}2}{\binom{52}5}=\dfrac{2717}{33320}$

as required.

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\sf 9y^2 -22y-24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf (3y-1)^2 -(2y+4)^2+(2y-3)(2y+3)\\\\Using \ formula:\\\\1) (a-b)^2 = a^2-2ab+b^2\\\\2) (a+b)^2= a^2+2ab+b^2\\\\3) (a+b)(a-b) = a^2-b^2\\\\Applying \ Formulas\\\\(3y)^2-2(3y)(1)+(1)^2-[(2y)^2+2(2y)(4)+(4)^2]+(2y)^2-(3)^2\\\\9y^2-6y+1-[4y^2+16y+16]+4y^2-9\\\\9y^2-6y+1 -4y^2-16y-16+4y^2-9\\\\Combining \ like \ terms\\\\9y^2-4y^2+4y^2-6y-16y+1-16-9\\\\9y^2 -22y-24\\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}$
