Find the number of possible 5-card hands that contain the cards specified from a standard 52-card deck.

A. A "red" card has either the heart or diamond suit. There are 26 of these. If we don't care about the order in which the cards are drawn (which is the assumption I'm using throughout this answer), then there are

\dbinom{26}5=\dfrac{26!}{5!(26-5)!}=65,780

such hands. To be clearer about the fact that we don't want "black" cards, we could also have written

\dbinom{26}5\dbinom{26}0

That is, we want 5 red cards but 0 black cards in our hand; there are 26 of each color to choose from. But the second term reduces to 1 and makes no difference anyway.

b. Now we want 4 spades (there are 13 in the deck) and 1 non-spade (39 non-spades in the deck) so we can make

\dbinom{13}4\dbinom{39}1=27,885

such hands.

c. Now we want 3 face cards (there are 3 per suit, with 4 suits altogether, giving a total of 12 face cards in the deck) and 2 non-face cards (40 in total), so we have

\dbinom{12}3\dbinom{40}2=171,600

possible hands.

d. Now we want 2 aces (4 total in the deck) and 3 non-aces (48 remaining), so we have

\dbinom42\dbinom{48}3=103,776

e. Now, we want at most 1 diamond. So either there are no diamonds or exactly 1 diamond in the hand. There are

\dbinom{13}0\dbinom{39}5+\dbinom{13}1\dbinom{39}4=1,645,020

such possible hands.

f. Finally, we want at least 1 king in the hand, which means we can have between 1 and 4 kings. We can add up the possible hands like in part (e),

\dbinom41\dbinom{48}4+\dbinom42\dbinom{48}3+\dbinom43\dbinom{48}2+\dbinom44\dbinom{48}1

but computing that can get tedious very quickly.

Instead, let's consider the number of hands *not* containing any kings at all. There are

\dbinom40\dbinom{48}5=1,712,304

such possible hands.

With the event of getting at least 1 king in mind, we can see that every possible 5 card hand either has at least 1 king or it does not. These events are disjoint, so

\text{total 5 card hands}=\text{total hands with at least 1 king}+\text{total hands without kings}

So the number of at-least-1-king hands is

\dbinom{52}5-\dbinom40\dbinom{48}5=886,656

OK, so;
BDE and BED are congruent because the opposite sides are both congruent
To find BDE and BED you must subtract 66 degrees from 180 degrees.
You are then left with 114 as the sum of both the angles you need to find
Since they are congruent, all you need to do is divide by two
114/2=57 degrees for both BDE (a) and BED(b)
Now for angle A and C;
This is easy because they are both congruent to the first two!
So basically, all of question four is "57 degrees"
 Sadly for number 5 i did not understand the question :"(
For 6 tho;
AC is parallel to DE because angle C is congruent to angle BED 
All the others can be ruled out 
For 7;
BD is half the length of AE, so:
 4x+20=2(3x+5)
4x+20=6x+10
20=2x+10
10=2x
x=5
 This means BD is 20 bc
3(5)+5
15+5
20
 And AE is 40 bc
20X2=40
or...
4(5)+20

Answer:

It decreases.

Step-by-step explanation:

10 / d

Lets say that it was 10 / 40, which is 10 divided by 40, 0.25.

Now, it has increased to twice the amount of that.

1 / 80, 10 divided by 80, which is 0.125

So, it decreases.
