Answer:

1 /4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Let :

P(S) = probability of drawing a spade

Odds in favor of drawing a spade = 1:3 ; this could be interpreted as :

P(drawing a spade)/P(not drawing a spade) = 1:3

P(S) / P(S') = 1/ 3

P(S') = 1 - P(S)

P(S) / (1 - P(S)) = 1 / 3

Cross multiply :

3P(S) = 1 - P(S)

Collect like terms

3P(S) + P(S) = 1

4P(S) = 1

P(S) = 1/4

Hence, probability ratio of drawing a spade P(S) = 1/4

butalik [34]

Answer:

∠ACB = 38°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ACB is an inscribed angle while arcAB is its intercepted arc

An inscribed angle is equal to half the length of its intercepted arc

Hence, ∠ACB = 1/2 the measure of arc AB

arc AB = 76°

Hence ∠ACB = 1/2 of 76

76/2 = 38

Therefore ∠ACB = 38°
