Answer:

2/5 or 2:5

Step-by-step explanation:

Face Card:

The face cards in a deck are the Jack, Queen, and King. There are 4 of each card (1 in each suit), for a total of 12 face cards.

Spade:

1/4 of all the cards in a deck are spades, so 52/4= 13 spades.

When added, the numerator of the probability is 25, however, because the Jack, Queen, and King of Spades are duplicated, we have to subtract 3.

25-3=22

22/55

when simplified: 2/5

ANSWER:

There are 52 cards in total.

Hence, total Outcomes =52

Probability of the card drawn is a card of spade or a face card:

Total cards of Spade = 13

Total face card = 12

Number of face card of Spade = 3

Therefore,

Probability of the card drawn is a card of spade or a face card:

\sf\frac{13}{52}  +  \frac{12}{52}  -  \frac{3}{52}

\sf\frac{13 + 12 - 3}{52}

\sf\frac{\cancel{22}}{\cancel{52}}  =  \frac{11}{26}.

What is the arc length of the the arc subtended in a circle with radius 6 and an angle of 7pi/8
joja [24]
First, find the fraction of the circumference represented by central angle 7pi/8:

 7pi/8
-------- 
   2pi

Then find the circumference; it is C = 2 pi r, or 2pi(6), or 12 pi units

Then the arc length is   7pi/8                  7
                                     -------- * 12 pi = -------- units, or 21/4 units, or 5 1/4 units.

Answer:

200√3

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle given here is a special right triangle, one with angles measuring 30-60-90 degrees. The rule for triangles like these are that the side opposite the 30° angle can be considered x, and the side opposite the 60° angle is x√3, while the hypotenuse, or side opposite the right angle, is 2x. All we need to know here are the two legs to find the area.

Since b is opposite the 30° angle, it is x, while side RS is opposite the 60° angle, meaning it is equal to x√3, meaning that the area of the triangle is 1/2*x*x√3. We can substitute in 20 for x, making our area 1/2*20*20√3. Multiplying we get 10*20√3, or 200√3.

Lacy work 15 hours last week she was paid $127.50 what is your hourly pay
kondor19780726 [428]

Given:

Lacy work 15 hours last week and she was paid $127.50.

To find:

The hourly pay of Lacy.

Solution:

We have,

15 hours pay = $127.50

To find the hourly pay of Lacy, we need to divide total pay by number of hours.

\text{Hourly pay}=\dfrac{\text{Total pay}}{\text{Number of hours}}

\text{Hourly pay}=\dfrac{127.50}{15}

\text{Hourly pay}=8.5

Therefore, the hourly pay of Lacy is $8.50.

The minute hand of a clock moves from 3 o'clock to 6 o'clock, or 1/4 of a complete revolution. Through how many degrees does it
jarptica [38.1K]
Well, there's 360 degrees in a full circle. 
If the hand moves 1/4 of a complete revolution, divide 360 by 4.

360\div4=90

The minute hand moved 90 degrees.
