In the game of blackjack played with one​ deck, a player is initially dealt 2 different cards from the 52 different cards in the

deck. a winning​ "blackjack" hand is won by getting 1 of the 4 aces and 1 of 16 other cards worth 10 points. the two cards can be in any order. find the probability of being dealt a blackjack hand. what approximate percentage of hands are winning blackjack​ hands?

We are given here that a blackjack hand consists of:

1 of the 4 aces = 4 / 52

1 of the 16 cards worth 10 points (10, jack, queen, king) = 16 / 52

 

So assuming that cards are dealt without replacement, therefore the probability of getting a blackjack hand is:

<span>P = 1st is ace * 2nd is 10 pt card + 1st is 10 pt card * 2nd is ace</span>

P = (4 / 52) * (16 / 51) + (16 / 52) * (4 / 51)

P = 0.04827 = 4.83%

 

Therefore there is a 4.83% probability to get a blackjack hand.

Sketch the region of integration for the following integral. ∫π/40∫6/cos(θ)0f(r,θ)rdrdθ
solong [7]

Answer:

The graph is sketched by considering the integral. The graph is the region bounded by the origin, the line x = 6, the line y = x/6 and the x-axis.    

Step-by-step explanation:

We sketch the integral ∫π/40∫6/cos(θ)0f(r,θ)rdrdθ. We consider the inner integral which ranges from r = 0 to r = 6/cosθ. r = 0 is located at the origin and r = 6/cosθ is located on the line  x = 6 (since x = rcosθ here x= 6)extends radially outward from the origin. The outer integral ranges from θ = 0 to θ = π/4. This is a line from the origin that intersects the line x = 6 ( r = 6/cosθ) at y = 1 when θ = π/2 . The graph is the region bounded by the origin, the line x = 6, the line y = x/6 and the x-axis.

Russell has a collection of 1,200 pennies. Of these pennies, 25% are dated before 1980, 35% are dated from 1980 to 2000, and the

480 pennies.

25% are dated before 1980, therefore:
1200(total):100 = 12 (1%)
12(1%)x25 = 300 (25%)

35% are dated from 1980 to 2000, therefore:
12(1%)x35 = 420 (35%)

25% are dated before 1980, 35% are dated from 1980 to 2000 and the rest are dated after 2000.
25% + 35% = 60%.
300(25%) + 420(35%) = 720.
60% = 720.
100%-60% = 40%.
40% is the amount of pennies that are dated after 2000.

The total (100%) of the pennies is 1200.
We also know that 60% of the total (1200) is 720.

1200(100%) - 720(60%) = 480(40%).

Therefore, the amount of pennies dated after 2000 in Russell’s Collection is 480.
