Answer: 4/13

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of cards in a deck = 52

Number of spades = 13

Number of aces = 4

Number of ace of spade = 1

Probability of either a spade or an ace :

P(spade or ace) = P(spade U ace)

P(spade U ace) = p(spade) + p(ace) - p(spade n ace)

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(spade) = 13 / 52

P(ace) = 4 / 52

P(spade n ace) = 1 / 52

P(spade U ace) = p(spade) + p(ace) - p(spade n ace)

= 13/52 + 4/52 - 1/52

= 16 / 52 = 4 /13

1. Determining the probability of a coin landing heads up by actually tossing a coin several times is an example of what?
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Theoretical probability and Experimental probability are related in that theoretical probability is based on your reasoning (e.g. two sides; therefore, there is a 50% chance of heads), but experimental probability is where your numbers are based off of actual results (e.g. you landed head 1/4th of the time; therefore, there is a 25% chance of getting heads.)

Julie wants to purchase a new home in six years. She thinks that she can purchase a nice home in a good neighborhood for $60,000
MrMuchimi

Answer:

$208.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Julie has to make the down payment which is 25% of $60000 after saving for 6 years.

Therefore, Julie has to save a total of 60000 \times \frac{25}{100} = 15000 dollars.

And Julie has to save it for the duration of 6 years i.e. (6 × 12) = 72 months.

Hence, Julie has to save \frac{15000}{72} = 208.33 dollars every month to make the down payment after 6 years. (Answer)
