Answer:

240 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Create an equation where x represents the total number of days

Use the information that 40 days is 1/6 of the total:

40 = 1/6x

Now, solve for x:

40 = 1/6x

Multiply both sides by 6, since it is the reciprocal of 1/6

40 = 1/6x

240 = x

So, the total number of days he has to record data is 240 days.

Dora has 10 seashells and plans to add 2 shells every week. Jerri has 4 seashells and plans to add 5 shells every week. Which sy
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Let x represents the week and y represents the seashells

As per the statement:

Dora has 10 seashells and plans to add 2 shells every week.

"2 shells every week" means 2x

⇒y = 10 + 2x

It is also given, Jerri has 4 seashells and plans to add 5 shells every week.

"5 shells every week" means 2x

⇒ y = 4 + 5x

The system of equation would be used:

y = 10 + 2x

y = 4 + 5x

Since, the girls have the same number of seashells

⇒10 + 2x = 4 + 5x

Subtract 4 from both sides we get;

6 + 2x = 5x

Subtract 2x from both sides we get;

6= 3x

Divide by 3 both sides we have;

x = 2 weeks.

Therefore, the number of weeks would it be before the girls have the same number if seashells is, 2 weeks.

max picks two different cards without replacement from a standard $52$-card deck. what is the probability that the cards are of
nikdorinn [45]

The probability that cards are from different suits is \frac{39}{51}

Probability of an event E represented by P(E) can be defined as (The number of favorable outcomes )/(Total number of outcomes).

There are 4 suits hearts, diamonds, club and spade in a standard deck of 52 cards.

Each of them has 13 cards each .

So when we pick first card from a single suit

we can pick it in 13 ways , now 12 cards are left.

We can pick the 2nd card from the same suit in 12 different ways .

So to pick 2 cards from a single suit we have 13x12 ways.

to pick 2 card from 4 suits = 4x13x12=624 ways

Total ways of choosing 2 cards from the pack of 52 cards is 52 X 51 =2652

probability that the cards are of same suits=\frac{624}{2652} =\frac{12}{51}

probability that the cards are of different suits=1-\frac{12}{51} =\frac{39}{51}
