Answer:

We have a 52 card deck:

a. Find the probability that both cards are clubs.

The probability of drawing a club will be equal to the quotient between the number of clubs in the deck divided by the total number of cards in the deck.

We initially have 13 clubs and 52 cards, then the probability of drawing a club in the first draw is:

p1 = 13/52.

Now the probability of drawing a club in the second draw will be:

p2 = 12/51

Where each number is decreased by one because we already drew a card, and that card was a club.

Then the probability of both events happening will be equal to the product of the individual probabilities:

P = p1*p2 = (13/52)*( 12/51) = 0.059

b. Find the probability that the first card is a spade and the second is a club.

Same as before, the probability of first drawing a spade is:

p1 = 13/52

And the probability of drawing a club in the second draw will be:

p2 = 13/51

This case differs from the prior one because for the second draw we have 13 clubs in the deck, and as we already drew one card (that was not a club) the total number of cards in the deck is 51.

Now the joint probability will be:

P = p1*p2 = (13/52)*(13/51) = 0.064

Simplify the expression. 12x^-6 y^10 times 3x^7 y
Vlada [557]

We need to simplify the expression:

12x^{-6}y^{10} \times (3x^{7}y)

Now, we know that we can resolve the exponents of the variables with the like terms only and we can multiply the coefficients independently:

Now,  

12x^{-6}y^{10} \times 3x^{7}y=(12 \times 3)\times (x^{-6}\times x^{7})\times (y^{10}\times y)

On simplifying the above expression we get:

36\times x^{(-6+7)}\times y^{(10+1)}

=36 \times x^{1}\times y^{11}

=36 \times x \times y^{11}

=36xy^{11}

So the simplified form of the expression 12x^{-6}y^{10} \times 3x^{7}y=36xy^{11}.

there are 27 red or blue marbles in the bag the number of red marbles is five less than three times the number of the blue marbl
alexdok [17]
So assuming that the total =27
r+b=27
r=-5+3b
r=3b-5
subsitute 3b-5 for r in first equation
3b-5+b=27
4b-5=27
add 5
4b=32
divide by 4
b=8
subsitute
b+r=27
8+r=27
subtracct 8
r=19

red=19
blue=8

1/4+x=5 1/8<br> What is x?<br> Please, Please, Please, Please help me!<br> Will mark Brainliest!
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

4 7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to gte the denominators the same!

So we multiply the 1/4 by 2

1/4 x 2 = 2/8

Now we subtract the 2/8 from 5 1/8 to get our answer :)

5 1/8 - 2/8 = 4 7/8

Your final answer will be 4 7/8 :)

Have a great day!
