A standard deck of cards has 52 cards divided into 4 suits, each of which has 13 cards. Two of the suits ( and , called `hearts' and `diamonds') are red, the other two ( and , called `spades' and `clubs') are black. The cards in the deck are placed in random order (usually by a process called `shuffling'). What is the probability that the first two cards drawn from the deck are both red

The probability that the first two cards drawn from the deck are both red is 24.51%

Step-by-step explanation:

A standard deck of cards has 52 cards. There are 4 of each card (4 Aces, 4 Kings, 4 Queens, etc.) . There are 4 suits (Clubs, Hearts, Diamonds, and Spades) with each suit being 13 cards .  Two of the suits (hearts and diamonds) are red, the other two (spades and clubs) are black.

P(first two cards drawn from the deck are both red)= P(First card is red) ∙× P(Second card is red)

Since two suits of the card is red (i.e hearts and diamond) and each suit consist of 13 cards, the total number of red cad = 13 + 13 = 26

P(First card is red) = number of red card / total number of cards = 26 / 52

When the first card is drawn without replacement i.e the card is not put back into the deck, the total number of card reduces to 51 and the number of red card reduces to 25.

Therefore, P(Second card is red) = 25 / 51

P(first two cards drawn from the deck are both red)= P(First card is red) ∙× P(Second card is red) = (26 / 52) × (25 / 51) = 0.2451 = 24.51%

The probability that the first two cards drawn from the deck are both red is 24.51%

i understand 100% 10/10 hit or miss?

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
