<h3>Answer as a fraction = 14/221 (exact)</h3><h3>Answer in decimal form = 0.0633 (approximate)</h3><h3>Answer in percent form = 6.33% (approximate)</h3>

=========================================================

Work Shown:

There are 13 diamond cards. The probability of getting a diamond card is 13/52 = 1/4.

Assuming the first card is not replaced, the probability of getting another diamond card is 12/51. Note how I subtracted 1 from the numerator and denominator of 13/52 to get 12/51.

Multiply the two fractions to get

(1/4)*(12/51) = 12/204 = 1/17

The probability of getting two diamonds in a row is 1/17

We'll use this later, so let A = 1/17.

---------------------

There are 4 kings. The probability of pulling out a king is 4/52 = 1/13

The probability of pulling out another king is 3/51 = 1/17

The probability of pulling out two kings in a row is (1/13)*(1/17) = 1/221

Let B = 1/221

---------------------

Add the values of A and B

A+B = 1/17 + 1/221

A+B = 13/221 + 1/221

A+B = (13+1)/221

A+B = 14/221

A+B = 0.0633 which is approximate

That converts to 6.33% when you move the decimal point over 2 spots to the right.

Answer:
3x² - 2x - 6

Explanation:
We are given that:
f (x) = 3x² - 2
g (x) = 2x + 4

We want to find the value of (f - g)(x), this means that we will simply subtract g (x) from f (x) as follows:
(f - g)(x) = f (x) - g (x)
(f - g)(x) = 3x² - 2 - (2x + 4)
(f - g)(x) = 3x² - 2 - 2x - 4
(f - g)(x) = 3x² - 2x - 6

Hope this helps :)

Ivanshal [37]

Answer: 17.75 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

After putting soil in the first flower bed, Layla's bag was ⅝ full. The pound of soil will be: = 5/8 × 10 = 6.25 pounds

Eliana's bag was ⅖ full. The pound of soil will be: = 2/5 × 10 = 4 pounds

Nature's bag was ¾ full. The pound of soil will be: = 3/4 × 10 = 30/4 = 7.5 pounds

The number of pounds of soil that they put in the first flower bed altogether will be:

= 6.25 + 4 + 7.5

= 17.75 pounds

Schach [20]
No, because you would round up if the number to the right of the ten thousand place was at least five you would round up but since it's only three you would round the number to 760,000
