Travis has hired Charlie and Dora to plant flowers. Dora can plant 150 flowers in the same time it takes Charlie to plant 120 fl

owers, which can be shown using the following relationship where d and c are the respective rates at which Dora and Charlie can plant flowers:
150 over d equals 120 over c

Also, Dora can plant 18 flowers more per day than Charlie.

How many flowers can Charlie plant per day?

Answer:

  72

Step-by-step explanation:

If the rates d and c are flowers per day, we have ...

  150/d = 120/c

  d -c = 18

__

Multiplying the first equation by cd/30, we have ...

  5c = 4d

Multiplying the second equation by 4 gives ...

  4d -4c = 72

Adding these equations together, we get ...

  5c +4d -4c = 4d +72

Simplifying and subtracting 4d leaves ...

  c = 72

Charlie can plant 72 flowers per day.

Find the probability of drawing a 10, replacing it, and drawing an ace.
lions [1.4K]

Assuming that you're talking about a standard deck of 52 cards, there are 4 tens and 4 aces.

So, at the beginning, you have probability 4/52=1/13 to draw a ten.

You replace, and you have an identical probability to draw an ace (you still have 4 favourable cases over 52 total cases).

Multiply the two probabilities to find the answer:

\dfrac{1}{13}\cdot\dfrac{1}{13}=\dfrac{1}{169}
