Answer:

13 / 204; No, they are dependent events

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of cards in the deck = 52

Total number of spades in the deck = 13

Total number of hearts in the deck = 13

Part 1: Calculating the Probability

Picking up the first card:

When picking the first card i.e spade, we have the option to pick 13 cards out of 52. So the probability will be 13/52

When first card is picked, the total number of cards will be reduced to 51 because we are not placing the card back in the deck

Picking up the second card:

When picking up the second card i.e. heart, we have the option to pick 13 cards out of 51. So the probability will be 13/51

The probability of picking a spade and then a heart is = 13/52 x 13/51 = 13/204

Part 2: Independent or Not

Note that, picking up a spade and not replacing it back is changing the probability of picking up a heart. In normal cases, picking up a heart from a deck will have the probability of 13/52, but since the we are not placing the card back the probability is changed to 13/51

Since, the probability of picking a heart is being changed by the previous event, we say that the two events are dependent.

Therefore, the correct answer will be final option: 13 / 204; No, they are dependent events

15. Find the length of segment DE of the triangle ABC.
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Option C. 26\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Triangles ADE and ABC are similar by AA similarity postulate

AB=2AD

Apply proportion

\frac{AD}{AB}=\frac{8x-6}{12x+4}\\ \\\frac{AD}{2AD}=\frac{8x-6}{12x+4}\\ \\\frac{1}{2}=\frac{8x-6}{12x+4}\\ \\12x+4=16x-12\\ \\16x-12x=4+12\\ \\4x=16\\ \\x=4\ units

Find the length of segment DE

DE=8x-6=8(4)-6=26\ units

HELP PLEASE 20points!!!
labwork [276]

Answer:

61%

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that out of all the people that were surveyed, 54% were 10th graders. Since 33% out of all the ones surveyed were 10th graders that chose robotics, the fraction would be 33/54 which is 0.611.

This is 61% approx.

1. A notebook costs $5 more than a folder. Greg purchased 3 notebooks and 2 folders and paid a total cost $30. What is the cost
stiv31 [10]
Answer
Notebook each =$4
Folder each = $9

First we write out what we know
Notebook = n
Folder = f
It says a notebook is +5 than a folder so
f = n +5
It says he bought 3 notebooks and 2 folders for $30
3n + 2f = 30

Because we know from the first equation
f=n+5, we can substitute that into the second equation for f

3n + 2(n+5) = 30
3n + 2n +10 =30. Now Combine like terms
5n +10 =30. Now isolate n by subtracting 10 from both sides
5n = 20. Now isolate n by dividing both sides by 5
n = 4

Now we do the same thing to find f
We substitute the value of n (4) into the equation 3n + 2f =30
3(4) +2f =30
12 +2f =30. Now isolate f by subtracting 12 from both sides
2f = 18. Now isolate f by dividing both sides by 2
f = 9


We check our work by inserting the n and f values we found into one of the equations
n + 5 = f
4 + 5 = 9
9 = 9. It worked it equals so it’s correct
