two cards are dealt at random from a standard deck of $52$ cards ($13$ hearts, $13$ clubs, $13$ spades, and $13$ diamonds). what is the probability that the first card is a $6$ and the second card is a queen?

Answers

The probability of getting a number 6 as the first card and a queen as the second card is 4/663.

Probability is mathematically defined as the ratio of the number of outcomes of a particular event or occurrence to the total number of outcomes.

For a standard deck, there are 52 total outcomes since there are 52 cards. A standard deck is divided into four suits - hearts, clubs, spades, and diamonds - with 13 cards each. Each suit has nine numbered cards from 2 to 10, three face cards (king, queen, and jack), and an ace.

The probability of having a numbered 6 card is 4/52. The probability is the same for getting a queen. Although, the probability of getting 6 as the first card and the queen as the second is different. This kind of probability requires the multiplication rule.

First card probability = 4/52

Second card probability = 4/51

The total number of outcomes for the second card is reduced since the first card is not replaced.

Probability (6 then queen) = (4/52)(4/51)

Probability (6 then queen) = 4/663

It takes 15 over 2 minutes to fill an empty aquarium to a depth of 3 over 5 meters. what is the unit rate in minutes per meter? write your answer as a fraction or a mixed number in simplest form.

Answers

The unit rate in minutes per meter is 25/2

We are given the time taken to fill an empty aquarium = 15/2 minutes

Also, the depth of aquarium = 3/5 meters

To find the unit rate in minutes per meter, we will simply keep the values in formula. We do not need to change the units, as they are already in required ones, which are minutes and meters.

Unit rate = minutes ÷ meter

Unit rate = 15/2 ÷ 3/5

Rewriting the fraction

Unit rate = 15×5 ÷ 3×2

Performing multiplication in both numerator and denominator

Unit rate = 75 ÷ 6

Performing division of both numerator and denominator by 3

Unit rate = 25/2

So, the unit rate in minutes per meter is 25/2.

Answers

The daily recommended grams of fat  by the nutritional label is 98 grams.

How to find the grams of fat recommended daily?

The nutritional label on a food stated that one serving contained 3 grams of fat which is 3.06% of the daily recommended level.

let

the recommended level = x

Therefore, the product of the percentage and the required daily  recommendation level is equals to the 3 grams.

grams of fat = 3.06% × x

3 =  3.06% × x

3 = 3.06 / 100 × x

3 = 3.06x / 100

cross multiply

3 = 3.06x / 100

300 = 3.06x

300 = 3.06x

divide both sides by 3.06

300 / 3.06 = 3.06x / 3.06

in rhombus $abcd$, points $e,f,g,$ and $h$ are the midpoints of $\overline{ab},\overline{bc},\overline{cd},$ and $\overline{da},$ respectively. quadrilateral $efgh$ has area 14 and perimeter 16. find the side length for rhombus $abcd$.

Answers

Side length of Rhombus ABCD is  8+2√2 unit

EFGH is a rectangle :

We know that ,

E, F , G , H are midpoints of AB, BC, CD , DA respectively

Since ABCD is a rhombus

AB = BC = CD = DA

AB ll CD  and BC ll DA

since,  E, F , G , H are midpoints of AB, BC, CD , DA respectively

from the figure below we can say that ,

1) AB ll CD ll FH and AB= CD = FH

2) BC ll DA ll GE and BC = DA = GE

Using mid point theorem we can say that ,

GH = EF = 1/2 AC and FG= EH = 1/2 BD

Since for the figure EFGH opposite sides are equal and and parallel , and the diagonals are equal in length we can say that EFGH is a rectangle.

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(a+b) = 2( GH + EH ) = 2 (EF + GF) = 2 ( 1/2 AC + 1/2 BD )

= 2 x 1/2 ( AC + BD ) = 16

⇒ AC + BD = 16  (1)

now area of a rectangle is given by

A = ab = GH x EH = EF x GF = 1/2 AC x 1/2 BD = 1/4 (AC x BD) = 14

⇒AC x BD = 14 x 4 = 56

from equation (1)

AC ( 16 - AC) = 56

= 16 AC - AC ^2 = 56

⇒ AC^2 - 16 AC + 56 = 0

AC = 8 +/- 2√2

BD = ( 16 - AC) = 8 +/- 2 √2  = side length of rhombus ABCD

Identify an equation in point slope form for the perpindicular to y=-3x+5 that passes through (4,-1)

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {y = \dfrac{1}{3}x - \dfrac{7}{3}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have a line y = mx + b where m is the slope and be is the y-intercept then a line perpendicular to this line will have slope -(1/m)

So the slope of the line perpendicular to y = -3x + 5 will be [tex]-\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex] = + 1/3 = 1/3

So the perpendicular line equation is

y = (1/3)x + b where b is the y intercept of this line

Since it passes through the point x = 4, y = -1 we plug in these values for x and y and solve for b

We get
[tex]-1=\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot \:4+b[/tex]

Switch sides
[tex]\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot \:4+b=-1[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{4}{3}+b=-1[/tex]

Subtract  [tex]\dfrac{4}{3}[/tex]  from both sides


[tex]b = -1 - \dfrac{4}{3} = -\dfrac{3}{3} -\dfrac{4}{3} = -\dfrac{7}{3}[/tex]

4. A right cone has a surface area of 258 cm² and a base radius of 4 cm. What is
the height of the cone to the nearest tenth of a centimetre?

Answers

Answer:

64.5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope this answer help you

Answer:

h = 16.0 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: I am assuming that the surface area of 258 is the total surface area which includes the Lateral Area (L) and Base Area(B)

Total Surface Area of a right cone

= Lateral Area(L) + Base Area(B)

All numbers in intermediate calculations are rounded to tenth of centimeter i.e. 1 decimal point

Base Area is the area of the circle with radius 4 = [tex]\displaystyle \pi \cdot16 = 50.3[/tex] cm²
Total Area = 258 cm²

So Lateral Area = 258 - 50.3 = 207.7 cm²

Lateral Area is given by the formula
[tex]\displaystyle L = \pi r s \textrm{ where s is the slant height }[/tex]

So we get

[tex]\displaystyle \rm pi \cdot 4 \cdot s = 207.7\\\\\textrm {This gives } s = \dfrac{207.7}{4\pi} = 16.5\\\\[/tex] cm

Slant height is given by the formula:
[tex]s = \sqrt{r^2 + h^2} \textrm{ where r is the radius and h the height}[/tex]
Plugging in values we get
[tex]16.5 = \sqrt{4^2 + h^2} = \sqrt{16 + h^2}[/tex]

Square both sides
[tex]16.5^2 = 16 + h^2[/tex]

==> [tex]h^2 = 16.5^2 - 16 = 256.25\\\\h = \sqrt{256.25} = 16.003 = 16.0[/tex]  rounded to 1 decimal place

6 - 4 = 2

8 - 6 = 2

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is given by:

= a + ( n - 1 ) d

Where a = the first term

d = common difference

Let the sequence that contains no digit less than 3 in ascending order be:

3 - n, 3 - (n + 1), 3 - (n+2), 3 - (n+3), 3 - (n+4),......

Where n = any real number from 1.

We see that the common difference is -1.

3 - (n+1) - (3 - n)

= 3 - n - 1 - 3 + n

Find the 2021st term.

We have,

a = 3 - n

d = -1

n = 2021

= a + ( n - 1 ) d

i) The equation of BC is given by: [tex]y = -\frac{2}{3}x + \frac{20}{3}[/tex].

ii) The coordinates of C are C(0,10) and the coordinate of D are D(14,6).

What is the missing information?

The diagram is missing, and is shown in the graph at the end of the answer.

What is a linear function?

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

For this problem, the coordinates are given as follows:

A(2, 14), B(-2,8) and C(x,0).

From the diagram, AB and BC are perpendicular, meaning that the multiplication of their slopes is of -1.

Given two points, the slope is given by change in y divided by change in x. Hence the slope of AB is given as follows:

mAB = (8 - 14)/(-2 - 2) = 3/2.

The slope of BC is given as follows:

mBC = (0 - 8)/(x - (-2))

mBC = -8/(x + 2).

The multiplication of the slopes is of -1, hence:

mAB x mBC = -1

-12/(x + 2) = -1

- x - 2 = -12

x = 10.

Hence, the slope of BC is:

mBC = -8/(x + 2) = -8/12 = -2/3.

Then:

y = -2/3x + b.

When x = 10, y = 0, hence we can find b as follows:

0 = -2/3(10) + b

b = 20/3.

Hence:

The equation of BC is given by: [tex]y = -\frac{2}{3}x + \frac{20}{3}[/tex].

From the diagram, we also have that AB and CD are parallel, meaning that they have the same slope, hence, considering D(x,y), we have that:

mCD = mAB

y/(x - 10) = 3/2

y = 1.5(x - 10)

y = 1.5x - 15.

AD and BC are also parallel, hence:

mAD = mBC

(y - 14)/(x - 2) = -2/3

Since y = 1.5x - 15, we have that:

(1.5x - 15 - 14)/(x - 2) = -2/3

(1.5x - 29)/(x - 2) = -2/3

3(1.5x - 29) = -2(x - 2)

4.5x - 87 = -2x + 4.

6.5x = 91

x = 91/6.5

x = 14.

y = 1.5x - 15 = 1.5(14) - 15 = 21 - 15 = 6.

Hence:

The coordinates of C are C(0,10) and the coordinate of D are D(14,6).

We know that when two lines intersect then the vertically opposite angles are equal.

So according to the given figure

      (11x + 47)° = (6x + 77)°

Solving the above equation for x we get

        11x° + 47° = 6x° + 77°

         5x° = 30°

          x = 6°

Thus the value of x is 6°

Also note that the linear pair of angles make 180°. That is sum of the two angle is 180°. As we can see from the figure ∠z  and (6x + 77)° make linear pair of angles, therefore there sum will be equal to 180°.

Thus,   ∠z  + (6x + 77)° = 180°

             ∠z + (6*6 + 77)° = 180°

            ∠z + 113° = 180°

The perimeter is 26. How much bigger is the longest side than the shortest side?

Answers

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

the perimeter is the sum of the 3 sides of the triangle.

Given perimeter = 26 , then

2a - 3 + 2a + 3a + 1 = 26 , that is

7a - 2 = 26 ( add 2 to both sides )

7a = 28 ( divide both sides by 7 )

a = 4

then

shortest side = 2a - 3 = 2(4) - 3 = 8 - 3 = 5

longest side = 3a + 1 = 3(4) + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13

the difference between the 2 sides is 13 - 5 = 8

the longer side is 8 units bigger than the shortest side

Three squares have been used to form a right triangle. What is the area of the third square if the area of the first two squares are 8 square units and 16 square units respectively?

Answers

The area of the third square is 24 units square.

How to find the area of a square?

The squares forms a right angle triangle.

The side length of a square are equal.

Therefore, the side length of each square contribute to the three sides of the right triangle formed. The unknown length of the right triangle is the hypotenuse side of the triangle. That unknown length is the side length of the square.

area of a square = l²

where

l = side length

area of the first square = l²

√8 = l

l = 2√2 units

area of the second square = l²

√16 = l

l = 4 units

The length of the squares are the legs and hypotenuse of the right triangle formed.

using Pythagoras theorem,

a² + b² = c²

Therefore,

a = 2√2 unitsb = 4 unitsc = ?

(2√2)² + 4² = c²

16 + 8 = c²

c = √24

c = 2√6 units

area of the third square = (2√6)² = 24 unit²

Type the correct answer in the box. use numerals instead of words. if necessary, use / for the fraction bar. what value of p makes the equation true? p =

Answers

When p = 0.125 the equation -3p + ( 1/8 ) = ( - 1/4 ) is true.

The given equation is:

-3p + ( 1/8 ) = ( - 1/4 )

On the left-hand side of the equation, the denominator of the two terms is not the same.

So, the LCM of 1 and 8 is 8.

Therefore,

- 3p × ( 8 / 8 ) + ( 1 / 8 ) × ( 1 / 1 ) = ( - 1 /4 )

- 24p / 8 + 1 / 8 = - 1 / 4

( - 24p + 1 ) / 8 = - 1 / 4

Now multiplying each side of the equation by 8.

We get,

[ ( - 24p + 1 ) / 8 ] × 8 = ( - 1 / 4 ) × 8

- 24p + 1 = - 8 / 4

- 24p + 1 = - 2

Subtracting 1 from each side of the equation,

- 24p + 1 - 1 = - 2 - 1

-24p = - 3

Now, divide each side of the equation by 24.

- 24p / 24 = - 3 / 24

- p = ( - 1 / 8 )

Multiplying by - 1 on each side of the equation,

( - p ) × ( - 1 ) = ( - 1 / 8 ) × ( - 1 )

p = 1 / 8

p = 0.125

The value of p = 0.125 will make the equation true.
