1) Convert 4% to decimal = .04

2) Multiply the purchase by that decimal

.04(56.70) = $2.27

The following exercise refers to choosing two cards from a thoroughly shuffled deck. Assume that the deck is shuffled after a ca

dem82 [27]

Answer:

$\frac{4}{663}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that from a well shuffled set of playing cards (52 in number) a card is drawn and without replacing it, next card is drawn.

A - the first card is 4

B - second card is ace

We have to find probability for

$A\bigcap B$

P(A) = no of 4s in the deck/total cards = $\frac{4}{52} =\frac{1}{13}$

After this first drawn if 4 is drawn, we have remaining 51 cards with 4 aces in it

P(B) = no of Aces in 51 cards/51 = $\frac{4}{51}$

Hence

$P(A\bigcap B) = \frac{1}{13} *\frac{4}{51} \\=\frac{4}{663}$

(Here we see that A and B are independent once we adjust the number of cards. Also for both we multiply the probabilities)

Is it possible to form a triangle with side lengths 3.5 3.5, and 9? If so, will it be scalene, isosceles, or equilateral? Or non

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

It is not possible to draw a triangle with given measurements of 3.5, 3.5, and 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Scalene Triangle - All 3 sides have different lengths.

Isosceles Triangle - 2 sides have equal lengths.

Equilateral Triangle - All 3 sides have equal lengths.

You must be thinking that it would be Isosceles triangle, but it is not. The measurements you gave is 3.5, 3.5, and 9. Grab a piece of paper, ruler, and a pencil. First draw the length of 9 cm with your pencil and ruler (let us pretend that the measurements are in cm). Then draw 3.5 cm by placing your ruler on the end/start of your 9cm line that you drew before. Then, once again draw a 3.5 cm on the other end of the 9cm line. You will see something like the picture above. You can see that the two sides of the triangle are not intersecting on the top. This means that the triangle formation cannot be made by the given measurements of 3.5, 3.5, and 9.

I hope you understand my answer and this is an easy way to find if, from the given measurements, a triangle is able to be drawn. Thank you !!

Find the equation of the line below if necessary use the slash (/) to indicate a division bar (2,6)(1,3)

777dan777 [17]

Given that the line passes through points:
(2,6), (1,3)
the equation will be given by:
m(x-x1)=y-y1
where
slope, m=(y-y1)/(x-x1)
from the points given:
m=(6-3)/(2-1)=3/1=3
thus the equation will be given by:
using point (1,3)
3(x-1)=y-3
3x-3=y-3
hence
y=3x-3+3
y=3x
Answer: y=3x
