Answer:

a) 0.00031

b) 0.0017

c) 0.31

d) 0.00018

Step-by-step explanation:

attached below is the detailed solution

Total number of 7-poker cards are 52P7 = 133784560

A) Determine the probabilities of Seven-card straight

probability of seven-card straight = 0.00031

B) Determine the probability of four cards of one rank and three of a different rank

P( four cards of one rank and three of different rank ) = 0.0017

C) Determine probability of three cards of one rank and two cards of each two different ranks

P( three cards one rank and two cards of two different ranks ) = 0.31

D) Determine probability of two cards of each of three different ranks and a card of a fourth rank

P ( two cards of each of three different ranks and a card of fourth rank ) = 0.00018

Researchers estimate that 15 out of every 25 customers at a store make purchases with a credit card. If the store has 600 custom

monitta

Answer:

360

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of customers who make purchases with a credit card

=15 out of every 25= $\frac{15}{25}=\frac{3}{5}$

The fraction 3/5 represents the part of the customer that makes purchases with credit cards.

Therefore if there are 600 customers tomorrow, 3/5 of them will use a credit card.

$\frac{3}{5} X 600=360$

360 credit card can be expected.

Vilka [71]

Answer:

Program C allows students to earn a Mathematics degree (B.A. or B.S.) by combining courses in the Department of Mathematics with courses from one other department. In most areas of specializations, mathematical and/or quantitative courses in other departments are part of the math degree program. All Program C students take a minimum of five core math courses: Calculus I, Calculus II, Calculus III, Introduction to Linear Algebra, and a proofs course, usually either Introduction to Abstract Algebra or Fundamental Properties of Spaces and Functions I.

What is the volume of a sphere with a radius of 4

Ede4ka [16]

Step-by-step explanation: To find the volume of a sphere, start with the formula for the volume of a sphere which is shown below.

$V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}$

Here, we are given that our sphere has a radius of 4 units.

So plugging into the formula, we have $(\frac{4}{3})(\pi)(4 units)^{3}$ .

Start by simplifying the exponent.

(4 units)³ is equal to (4 units) (4 units) (4 units) or 64 units³.

So we have $(\frac{4}{3})(\pi)(64 units^3})$ .

Next, we multiply (4/3)(64) which can

be thought of as (4/3)(64/1)

So multiplying across the numerators and across the denominators,

we have $\frac{256}{3} \pi units^{3}$ .

Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 30 ft3/min, and its coarseness is such that it forms a pile in the shap

Answer:

Rate of increase in height = $\frac{dh}{dt}=0.3156ft/min$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that volume of a cone is given by

$V=\frac{1}{12}\pi d^{2}h$

It is Given that diameter equals height thus we have

$V=\frac{1}{12}\pi h^{2}h\\\\V=\frac{1}{12}\pi h^{3}$

Differentiating both sides with respect to time we get

$\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{12}\pi \frac{dh^{3}}{dt}\\\\\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{12}\pi(3h^{2}\frac{dh}{dt})$

Applying values and solving for $\frac{dh}{dt}$ we get

$\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{12\frac{dV}{dt}}{3\pi h^{2}}\\\\\frac{dh}{dt}=0.3156ft/min$
