Agame is played where 26 tiles are in a bag. each tile has a different letter of the alphabet on it. if you draw 5 letters what is the probability of the letters being m-u-s-i-c in order if there is no replacement?

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that there are 26 tiles .

Now to make the word MUSIC we have to select 5 tiles.

So, the number of ways of selecting five tiles for making word music =

Now we know that the word MUSIC can be correctly spelled in only  1 way

So, Probability of the letters being m-u-s-i-c in order if there is no replacement =

Hence the probability of the letters being m-u-s-i-c in order if there is no replacement is  

answer

d. 10

explanation

the distance from point y to wx is the height of the triangle.

using pythagoras theorem,

group similar terms to get,

this implies that,

take positive square root of both sides to get,

this implies that,
