Jim picked a card from a standard deck. what is the probability that jim picked a heart or an ace?

The answer is actually 16/52.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 13 hearts and 4 aces. However, one of the 4 aces is a heart, so there would only be 3 other aces.

13 hearts + 3 other aces = 16

There are 52 cards in a deck, so the probability would be 16/52.

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:
