Laura found an old deck of cards in her drawer which had only eight face cards: king of hearts (H), king of spades (S), king of

clubs (C), king of diamonds (D), queen of hearts (H), queen of spades (S), queen of clubs (C), and queen of diamonds (D). Laura and her sister separated the kings and queens into a king deck and a queen deck. They created a game where they draw one card from each deck.
The table below shows all the possible outcomes they can draw.

Outcomes Queen(H) Queen(S) Queen(C) Queen(D)
King(H) King(H),
Queen(H) King(H),
Queen(S) King(H),
Queen(C) King(H),
Queen(D)
King(S) King(S),
Queen(H) King(S),
Queen(S) King(S),
Queen(C) King(S),

Queen(C) King(C),
Queen(D)
King(D) King(D),
Queen(H) King(D),
Queen(S) King(D),
Queen(C) King(D),

What is the probability of Laura and her sister drawing a king that is not the king of hearts, and a queen that is not the queen of spades?

Problem page a long distance runner starts at the beginning of a trail and runs at a rate of 6 miles per hour. one hour later, a
alukav5142 [94]
The thing you have to figure out about this is the distance for each person and the time it takes for the biker to meet the runner.  The rates we are told.  The formula is distance = rate times time.  Let's do that for the runner first.  His rate is 6 so the formula so far is d = 6t.  Now let's work on the time.  If the biker left an hour later than the runner, then the runner has been running an hour more than the biker.  Therefore, the runner's time is t + 1.  Hold off on the distance part til we do for the biker what we just did for the runner.  The biker's rate is 14, and we already decided that his time is t.  His equation is d = 14t.  Now at the exact moment the biker meets the runner their distances are the same.  So if the equation for the runner is d = 6t + 6 and the equation for the biker is d = 14t and their distances are the same, by the transitive property, their rates and times are the same as well, meaning we set them equal to each other and solve for t.  6t + 6 = 14t.  6 = 8t and t = 3/4.  This means that it took 45 minutes for the biker to meet the runner.

Marilyn uses a credit card with a 19.9% APR compounded monthly to pay for car repairs totaling $991.38. She can pay $410 per mon
Leokris [45]
Marilyn's finance charge at the end of the first month will be
  $991.38 × 0.199/12 = $16.44
The balance subject to the next month's finance charge will be
  $991.38 +16.44 -410.00 = $597.82

The finance charge at the end of the second month will be
  $597.82 × 0.199/12 = $9.91
The balance remaining after the second payment will be
  $597.82 +9.91 -410.00 = $197.73

The finance charge applied at the end of the third month is
  $197.73 × .199/12 = $3.28
so Marilyn can make one final payment of
  $197.73 +3.28 = $201.01
to pay off the balance.

In all, Marilyn has paid 2×$410.00 +201.01 = 
  $1021.01 . . . . . . . . corresponds to the first choice

_____
In real life, Marilyn's credit card may not accrue any finance charge until after the first statement on which the charge appears. Thus the total cost of the purchase may be only $1004.02. The attached spreadsheet shows the beginning balance and the finance charges for each month for the two different scenarios.
