City B. Boiling point decreases as you get further from sea level. The altitude is higher and thus the pressure is higher. This cause the boiling point to be lowered.

Answer:

I is clear that, the linear equation $5x+12=5x-7$ has no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Checking the first option:</u>

$\frac{2}{3}\left(9x+6\right)=6x+4$

$6x+4=6x+4$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}4\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$

$6x+4-4=6x+4-4$

$6x=6x$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}6x\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$

$6x-6x=6x-6x$

$0=0$

$\mathrm{Both\:sides\:are\:equal}$

$\mathrm{True\:for\:all}\:x$

<u>Checking the 2nd option:</u>

$5x+12=5x-7$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}5x\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$

$5x+12-5x=5x-7-5x$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$12=-7$

$\mathrm{The\:sides\:are\:not\:equal}$

$\mathrm{No\:Solution}$

<u>Checking the 3rd option:</u>

$4x+7=3x+7$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}7\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$

$4x+7-7=3x+7-7$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$4x=3x$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}3x\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$

$4x-3x=3x-3x$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$x=0$

<u>Checking the 4th option:</u>

$-3\left(2x-5\right)=15-6x$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}15\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$

$-6x+15-15=15-6x-15$

$\mathrm{Simplify}\$

$-6x=-6x$

$\mathrm{Add\:}6x\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}$

$-6x+6x=-6x+6x$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$\mathrm{Both\:sides\:are\:equal}$

$\mathrm{True\:for\:all}\:x$

Result:

Therefore, from the above calculations it is clear that, the linear equation

$5x+12=5x-7$ has no solution.

A deck of 52 cards contains 12 picture cards. If the 52 cards are distributed in a random manner among four players in such a wa

Mkey [24]

Answer:

The probability that each player will receive three picture cards = 0.0324

Step-by-step explanation:

As given,

A deck of 52 cards contains 12 picture cards

Remaining card = 52 - 12 = 40

So,

Total number of ways in which 12 picture card is distributed = $\frac{12!}{3! 3! 3! 3!}$

Now,

The Total number of ways in which Remaining cards are distributed = $\frac{40!}{10! 10! 10! 10!}$

So,

Total number of ways of getting 3 picture card and remaining card = $\frac{12!}{3! 3! 3! 3!}$ × $\frac{40!}{10! 10! 10! 10!}$

= $\frac{12! 40!}{(3!)^{4} (10!)^{4} }$

Now,

Total number of ways to distribute 52 cards so that each people get 13 card = $\frac{52!}{13! 13! 13! 13!} = \frac{52!}{ (13!)^{4} }$

∴ The probability = $\frac{\frac{12! 40!}{(3!)^{4} (10!)^{4} }}{\frac{52!}{(13!)^{4} }}$

= $\frac{12! 40!}{(3!)^{4} (10!)^{4} }$ × $\frac{(13!)^{4} }{ 52! }$

= $\frac{12! 40!}{(3!)^{4} (10!)^{4} }$ × $\frac{(13.12.11.10!)^{4} }{ 52.51.50.49.48.47.46.45.44.43.42.41.40! }$

= $\frac{12!}{(3!)^{4} }$ × $\frac{(13.12.11)^{4} }{ 52.51.50.49.48.47.46.45.44.43.42.41}$

= $\frac{479,001,600}{(6)^{4} }$ × $\frac{(1716)^{4} }{ 52.51.50.49.48.47.46.45.44.43.42.41}$

= 0.0324

∴ we get

The probability that each player will receive three picture cards = 0.0324
