Patrick is doing a card trick using a standard 52-card deck with four suits: hearts, diamonds, spades, and clubs. he shows his friend a card, replaces it, and then shows his friend another card. what is the probability that the first card is not a club and the second card is not a heart?

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.
