Answer:

6 / 51

Step-by-step explanation:

It is false.

Reason:

The probability of picking a black card at first is:

26 / 52 = 1/2

There are now 25 black cards and 51 cards in total.

The probability of picking another black card, if there's no replacement is now:

25 / 51

Now, there are 24 black cards and 50 cards left in total.

The probability of picking a black card without replacement now becomes:

24 / 50 = 12 / 25

Hence, the probability of picking three black cards without replacement is:

1/2 * 25/51 * 12 / 25 = 300 / 2550

In simplest form, it is 6 / 51

ABC is isosceles with AB=AC=8 units and BC=6 units. D and E are midpoints of AB and BC respectively. Calculate the length of DE?
Allushta [10]
The triangle is drawn and is shown in the image attached with.

We get two similar triangles. Triangle ABC and Triangle ADE. Since the triangles are similar the ratio of their corresponding sides will be the same. 

D and E are the midpoints of AB and BC, therefore, AD and AE are both 4 units in length. Using the property of similar triangles, we can say:

AD : DE= AB : BC
AD = 4 units
AB = 8 units
BC = 6 units
DE = unknown = x units

So,

4 :x = 8 : 6 \\  \\ 
 \frac{4}{x} = \frac{8}{6}  \\  \\ 
x=4* \frac{6}{8}=3 


Therefore, the length of DE will be 3 units
