Based on the cost of the contract and the probability to win it, the total expected value of the contract proposal is -$2500.

<h3>How to calculate the expected value of a contract proposal?</h3>

The general formula to calculate the expected value is:

Expected value: possibility of winnind the contract x the amount when winning - possibility of loing the contract x possible loss

Possibility of winning the contract= 0.10
Possibility of losing the contract = 0.90
Gain: $65000
Loss: $10000

<h3>What is the expected value of the contract?</h3>

Expected value: 0.10 x 65000 - 0.90 x 10000
Expected value: 6500 - 9000
Expected value: -$2500

1.The second industrial revolution refers to the changes in manufacturing and building, and the new inventions brought about by the introduction of inexpensive steel. After the Second Industrial Revolution cites were overcrowded because of the need of jobs for people. The streets of cities were overcrowded which had sanitation issues so, lots of people were getting sick as a result. Crime grew as a result of not enough police and because it was easy to lose the police in crowds of people. Devices such as cars, electric lights, and telephones made the middle class's life more enjoyable. People who did urban planning reforms such as trolly parks made it so the working class could spend their extra time and money on something enjoyable.

2.One of the largest effects that we still deal with all over the war is Slavery. The Atlantic Slave Trade is a well-known trade route used to trade slaves and items through Africa.Through the trade and conquering of Africa by the Europeans, weapons and processed items were traded with the Africans.The trade of items allowed major groups to prosper and continue to grow. This eventually resulted in large African kings defending their lands against the powerful Europeans when they attacked.

3.Nationalism is patriotic feelings towards your country. Nationalism can cause terror or hate to other nations that you see as a threat to your way of life. I'll give you one example so as not to do the work for you. The Nazi's were a great example of strong nationalism.

What set of reflections and rotations would carry rectangle ABCD onto itself? Parallelogram formed by ordered pairs A at negativ

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Option (4).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take the coordinates of point A for the set of reflections and rotations given in the options.

Option (1). Rotate 180° → A(-4, 1) becomes (4, -1)

Reflect over x-axis → (4, -1) becomes (4, 1)

Reflect over the line y = x → (4, 1) becomes A'(1, 4)

Therefore, point A will not overlap itself after the number of transformations given.

Option (2). Reflect across x-axis → A(-4, 1) will become (-4, -1)

Rotate 180° → (-4, -1) becomes (4, 1)

Reflect over the x-axis → (4, 1) becomes A'(4, -1)

Therefore, point A(-4, 1) doesn't overlap A'(4, -1).

Option (3). Rotate 180° → A(4, 1) becomes (-4, -1)

Reflect over the y-axis → (-4, -1) becomes (4, -1)

Reflected over y = x → (4, -1) becomes (-1, 4)

So the point A(4, 1) becomes A'(-1, 4) after the set of reflections,

Option (4). Reflect over the y axis → A(-4, 1) becomes (4, 1)

Reflect over the x-axis → (4, 1) becomes (4, -1)

Rotate 180° → (4, -1) becomes A'(-4, 1)

Therefore, point A will overlap itself following the set of transformations.
