Answer:

d. 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Information to know

15 cards left in the deck, and 5 are diamond, to find the probability of the next 2 cards being diamond, one has to find the probability of the 1st card as a diamond, and then multiply it by the probability of the 2nd card being a diamond.

Remember, probability is;

\frac{favorable-outcomes}{total-outcomes}

2. Find probability 1

favorable out comes; diamond = 5

total outcomes; total cards = 15

probability is; \frac{5}{15}

Simplified; \frac{1}{3}

3. Finding probability 2

If the last card drawn was a diamond then the new numbers will be

favorable outcomes; 4

total outcomes; 14

Probability is; \frac{4}{14}

Simplified; \frac{2}{7}

4. Total probability

Now, one has to multiply the first probability by the second probability to find the probability of the event;

\frac{1}{3} * \frac{2}{7}

= \frac{2}{21}

= 0.095238

What is the simplified form of the following expression? <br><br> ^3sqrt(4x/5)
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

= (∛(100x))/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression; ∛(4x/5)

To simplify this we need to make denominator a perfect cube.

So multiply and divide 25 inside the cube root, so that the denominator will become a perfect cube of 5.

∛(4x/5) = ∛((4x/5)×(25/25))

            = ∛(100x/125)

            = ∛(100x/5³)

            <u>= (∛100x)/5</u>
