The expected value of the game in which 5 dice (6-sided) are rolled simultaneously is -0.2094.

<h3>How to find the mean (expectation) and variance of a random variable?</h3>

Supposing that the considered random variable is discrete, we get:

Mean =  E(X) = \sum_{\forall x_i} f(x_i)x_i

Here,   x_i; \: \: i = 1,2, ... , n is its n data values and f(x_i)is the probability of  X = x_i

Suppose you play a game in which 5 dice (6-sided) are rolled simultaneously.

  • If a "4" is rolled, then you win $2 for each "4" showing.
  • If all the dice are showing "4", you win $1000.
  • If none of the dice are showing "4", then you lose $5.

Let Y is the amount of money player won. The value of X can be,

Y=2,4,6,8,1000,-5

<h3>How to find that a given condition can be modeled by binomial distribution?</h3>

Binomial distributions consists of n independent Bernoulli trials. Bernoulli trials are those trials which end up randomly either on success (with probability p) or on failures( with probability 1- p = q (say))

Suppose we have random variable X pertaining binomial distribution with parameters n and p, then it is written as

X \sim B(n,p)

The probability that out of n trials, there'd be x successes is given by

P(X =x) = \: ^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}

The expected value and variance of X are:

E(X) = np\\ Var(X) = np(1-p)

Put the values as 5 trials for each time 4 appears.

P(X =0) = \: ^5C_1(\dfrac{1}{6})^0(1-\dfrac{1}{6})^{5-0}=0.4018 \:\\P(X =1) = \: ^5C_1(\dfrac{1}{6})^1(1-\dfrac{1}{6})^{5-1}=0.402\\P(X =2) = \: ^5C_2(\dfrac{1}{6})^2(1-\dfrac{1}{6})^{5-2}=0.162\\P(X =3) = \: ^5C_3(\dfrac{1}{6})^3(1-\dfrac{1}{6})^{5-3}=0.032\\P(X =4) = \: ^5C_4(\dfrac{1}{6})^4(1-\dfrac{1}{6})^{5-4}=0.0032\\P(X =5) = \: ^5C_5(\dfrac{1}{6})^5(1-\dfrac{1}{6})^{5-5}=0.00013\\

The probability of loosing $5 equal probability of 0 success.

P(Y=-5)=P(x=0)

Similarly, for probability of getting profit are,

P(Y=2)=P(x=1)\\P(Y=4)=P(x=2)\\P(Y=6)=P(x=3)\\P(Y=8)=P(x=4)\\P(Y=1000)=P(x=5)

Expected value of game,

E(Y)=\sum y .P(Y=y)\\E(Y)=-5.P(X=0)+2.P(X=1)+4.P(X=2)+6.P(X=3)+8.P(X=4)+1000.P(X=5)\\E(Y)=-0.2094

Thus, the expected value of the game in which 5 dice (6-sided) are rolled simultaneously is -0.2094.

Factor 2x 2 - 10x + 8 completely.
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

2(x-1)(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by dividing each term by 2 and pulling the 2 to the front.

2x^2-10x+8 = 2(x^2-5x+4)

This is a trinomial. Trinomials are three term algebraic expressions typically featuring variables to exponent powers. To break these trinomials down we factor them using the diamond method or GCF. The diamond method states that for a trinomial ax^2+bx+c multiply a*c then find two numbers which multiply to this number and add to b. When you find those numbers, write them as (x-/+ number)(x-/+number).

x^2-5x+4

a=1, c=4

ac=4 and add to b=-5 which -1 and -4 satisfy

The factored form is 2(x-1)(x-4).
