Answer:

9/5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a variable stand for the nonzero number. It has to not be zero because it's on the bottom of a fraction or it is the "divided by" guy in a division. It is division because quotient means you are dividing.

So 9 is on top (or in front)

5x is on the bottom (or the second term)

9/5x

also 9÷5x but I think the / notation is preferred in middle school, high school and college for algebra.

Also the variable can be almost any letter, like 9/5n or 9/5s is just as good.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the random variable denoting the net gain(in dollars) for a single trial(one bet).

Assuming that each number in the wheel is equally likely, probability of the outcome being a victory is $\frac{1}{38}$ and probability of failure is $\frac{37}{38}$ . For a win, X takes value 35 and for a loss X takes value -1. So the model is,
