You are certain to get a red card when selecting 27 cards from a shuffled deck. Express the indicated degree of likelihood as a

fgiga [73]

Answer:

If something is guaranteed, it has a probability of 100%, or 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

A standard deck has 52 cards. Of these, half are red cards (diamonds and hearts) and half are black cards (clovers and spades)

Half of the deck is 26 cards (52 ÷ 2 = 26), so you have 26 red and 26 black cards.

What this means in our context is, if we draw 27 cards, even if we drew all 26 black cards, we would still have 1 red card.

So the probability is 100%, or 1, of drawing a red card when we pick 27 cards from a deck, no matter how it's shuffled

Jayden has x nickels and y pennies. He has at most 14 coins worth no less than $0.34 combined. Solve this system of inequalities

oee [108]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of nickels with Jayden = x

Number of pennies with Jayden = y

Since, number of coins is at most 14,

x + y ≤ 14 -------(1)

Worth of nickels = $0.05x

Worth of pennies = $0.01y

Since, worth of pennies is not less than $0.34,

0.05x + 0.01y ≥ 0.34

5x + y ≥ 34 --------(2)

By using a graphing calculator,

Common point of of both the inequalities is (5, 9)

Therefore, Number of nickels = 5

Number of pennies = 9
