A standard deck of 52 cards has 4 suits (spades, clubs, hearts, and diamonds) with 13 different cards (ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8,

9, 10, jack, queen, king) in each suit. If you are dealt exactly two cards from the deck without replacement, what is the probability that you are dealt a pair (matching cards in different suits)

Answer:

P(a pair with matching cards in different suits) = 1/52

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that there are 4 suites and each suit has 13 different cards. This is a total of 52 cards.

Thus;

Probability of selecting one card of a particular suit = 13/52 = 1/4

If we now want to select a matching card of another suit without replacing the first one, then, we now have; 52 - 13 = 39 cards. Now, there are only 3 matching cards of the 3 remaining suits that is same as the first card drawn.

Thus; probability = 3/39 = 1/13

Thus;

P(a pair with matching cards in different suits) = 1/4 × 1/13

P(a pair with matching cards in different suits) = 1/52

Estimate the solution of the system x+y=4 2x-y=6 by sketching a graph of each linear function. Then solve the system algebraical
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

(10/3, 2/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

You may find it easier to write these two equations x+y=4 2x-y=6 in a column:

x+y=4

2x-y=6

Adding these together will eliminate y:

3x = 10.  Then x = 10/3.

Substituting 10/3 for x in the first equation results in:

10/3 + y = 4

Clear fractions by multiplying all three terms by 3:

10 + 3y = 12

Then 3y = 2, and y = 2/3.

The solution is (10/3, 2/3)

A number multiplied by -8, subtracted from the sum of 14 and five times the number
Charra [1.4K]

Let us suppose the number is x. Now we try to make an algebraic expression going step by step.

Step 1:

Five times the number means 5 multiplied by x.

So it becomes 5x.

Step 2:

Sum of 14 and five times the number means 5x+14.

Step 3:

Number multiplied by -8 means -8x.

Step 4:

Subtract the expression in step (3) from expression in step (2)

5x+14-(-8x)

Now we can simplify it further,

5x+14+8x

Combining like terms,

13x+14

Answer: The final expression becomes 13x+14.
