Hi,
Suppose that you select 2 cards without replacement from a deck.
A. If the first card that you select is a king, what is the probability that the second card you select is a spade?
Might consider using: P(A|B) = P(A and B)/P(B) where P(A and B) = %284%2F52%29%2813%2F51%29
P(2nd is a spade|1st is a K) = %28%284%2F52%29%2813%2F51%29%29%2F%284%2F52%29=+13%2F51

absolute-value/647364: Hi, I'm in a hybrid math class at my college, so i don't get to see my teacher for another week and i have no idea how to do this problem. Can you please help me?
I don't understand the "K" rule:
K={K if K>(or equal to)0
{-K if K< 0
I have an example from my book here: (I am just having a hard time with this because my book does not explain anything.)
absol. (x-2)^2 absol.
I thought you would do this: (x-2)(x-2) and multiply: x^2+4
The answer in the book says (x-2)^2 is the answer along with: absol.K absol.=K if K> (or equal to) 0
I dont understand how to find out what K rule to use if there is no real number value.
Thank you,

Hi,
the idea is by definition: absolute value |number| ALWAYS has an 'absolutely' ≥ 0 result
regardless if the number is positive or negative
for ex: |4| = 4 and |-4| = 4
As to:
|K| = K, that would only be true if K itself were ≥ 0
|(x-2)^2| = (x-2)^2 | quanity (x-2) 'squared' is ALWAYS ≥ 0

Can someone help please?
I know the answer is $42,000 but I cant figure out how this was done?
I tried by subtracting 100%-7% which I get .93, then I multiplied it by 44,940 thinking I would get 42,000 but I'm doing something wrong, what am I missing?
