Answer: 1/169
The calculation would be (4/52)*(4/52) which is the same as (1/13)^2
The 4/52 refers to the fact there are 4 kings out of 52 cards total.
The 1/13 is the idea where there's 1 king in any given suit of 13 cards.
Answer:
width is 14, length is 19
Step-by-step explanation:
let w represent the width of the rectangle.
"The length of a rectangle is 5 cm longer than its width."
You can take from this that you must add 5 to the width to get the length.
so, you can now write that L=w+5 .
The formula for perimeter is 2w+2L.
You can plug the values in.
2w+2(w+5) is the expression you get.
use distributive property on the 2(w+5) to get 2w+ 2w+10 . Add same terms together and get 4w+10, which represents the perimeter.
"..The perimeter of the rectangle is 66 cm."
Set the simplified expression 4w+10 to 66 to get
4w+10=66
Subtract 10 from both sides and get
4w=56
divide by four for both sides and get w=14 .
We are not done yet!
To find the length, plug the width back into our formula L=w+5 and get L=14+5. The length is 19.
Solve for x
Answer:
I think this the answer 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a rectanguiar shape like this one is V = L * W * H, where the letters represent Length, Width and Height. Here L is the longest dimension and is 28 - 2x; W is the width and is 22-2x; and finally, x is the height. Thus, the volume of this box must be
V(x) = (28 - 2x)*(22 - 2x)*x
and we want to maximize V(x).
One way of doing that is to graph V(x) and look for any local maximum of the graph. We'd want to determine the value of x for which V(x) is a maximum.
Another way, for those who know some calculus, is to use the first and second derivatives to identify the value of x at which V is at a maximum.
