Answer:

x = -1.7.

Step-by-step explanation:

3.7 = 5x + 12.2

Subtract 3.7 from both sides:

0 = 5x + 12.2 - 3.7

0 = 5x + 8.5

Subtract 5x from both sides:

-5x = 8.5

x = 8.5 / -5

x = -1.7.

Answer:

$\frac{1429}{120}$ or $11\frac{109}{120}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A farmer has a basket of peaches. He gives ⅓ of the peaches to one person, ¼ to another, ⅕ to another, ⅛ to another, and then gives 7 peaches to a 5th person.

Remaining peaches = 4

We need to find the original number of peaches in the basket.

The farmer gives the total number of peaches = $\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{8}+7$

Let x be the former gives the total number of peaches

We multiply and divide by 120 in right side of the above equation because of 120 is divided by all given denominator and then simplify.

$x = \frac{120}{120}(\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{8}+7)$

$x = \frac{1}{120}(\frac{120}{3}+\frac{120}{4}+\frac{120}{5}+\frac{120}{8}+7\times 120)$

$x = \frac{1}{120}(40+30+24+15+840)$

$x = \frac{1}{120}(949)$

$x = \frac{949}{120}$

We add the remaining peaches by given peaches for the original number of peaches in the basket.

Original number of peaches = $\frac{949}{120}+4$

Original number of peaches = $\frac{949+4\times 120}{120}$

Original number of peaches = $\frac{949+480}{120}$

Original number of peaches = $\frac{1429}{120}$

Original number of peaches = $11\frac{109}{120}$

Therefore the original number of peaches in the basket is $\frac{1429}{120}$ or $11\frac{109}{120}$

What is the probability of being dealt exactly three of a kind (like three kings or three 7’s, etc.) in a five card hand from a

Drupady [299]

Answer:

P=0.00564

Step-by-step explanation:

From Exercise we have 52 cards.

We calculate the number of combinations to draw 5 cards from a deck of 52 cards. We get

{52}_C_{5}=\frac{52!}{5!(52-5)!}=2598960

We now count the number of favorable combinations:

{13}_C_{1} · {48}_C_{2}= 13 · \frac{48!}{2!(48-2)!}=14664

Therefore, the probabilitiy is

14664/2598960=0.00564

P=0.00564
