The lottery's anticipated worth is $80.
Given that,
The probability of receiving $125 is 0.25; the likelihood of receiving $100 is 0.3; and the likelihood of receiving $50 is 0.45.
A) EV=125*.2+100*.3+50*.5=$80
The lottery's anticipated worth is $80.
The expected value is obtained by multiplying each result by its likelihood.
The expected value of the lottery is then calculated by adding up all of these.
This is what we have: ;;
125(0.2) + 100(0.3) + 50(0.5) (0.5)
= 25 + 30 + 25 = $80
B) This is the formula for variance is shown in figure :
So, we can calculate the variance as follows:
.2*(125-80)^2+.3*(100-80)^2+.5*(50-80)^2=975
C) A risk-neutral person would pay $80 or less to play the lottery.

<u>ANSWER</u>
1.

<u>QUESTION 1</u>
The first sentence is 
.
Recall that;
We simplify the left hand side by applying this property to get;
.
.
We now rewrite the right hand side too in an index form to obtain;
We now equate the exponents to get;
.
.
<u>QUESTION 2</u>
The second sentence is 
We simplify the left hand side first to get;
We now rewrite the left hand side too in index form to obtain;
We equate the exponents to get;
This implies that;
or
Use the given values in the compound interest formula to solve for time, n.
A is the final amount of money, $2800
P is the initial or starting amount $1900
i is the interest rate as a decimal 0.025
n is time in years since it annual.
2800 = 1900(1 + 0.025)^n
2800 = 1900(1.025)^n
2800/1900 = (1.025)^n
28/19 = (1.025)^n
take the natural log of both sides to solve for exponent.
ln(28/19) = ln(1.025^n)
power rule of logarithmic moves exponent
ln(28/19) = n*ln(1.025)
ln(28/19) / ln(1.025) = n
put into a calculator
15.7 years = n
So one trip = 4 km
two trips = 8
8 + 4 = 12
i believe your answer is 12
Thanks!
