Find the expected value of the winnings

Mathematics
1 answer:
Orlov [11]1 year ago

The expected value of the winnings from the game is $4

<h3>How to determine the expected value?</h3>

The payout probability distribution is given as:

Payout ($) 2 4 6 8 10

Probability 0.5 0.2 0.15 0.1 0.05

The expected value is then calculated as:

E(x) = \sum x * P(x)

This gives

E(x) = 2 * 0.5 + 4 * 0.2 + 6 * 0.15 + 8 * 0.1 + 10 * 0.05

Evaluate the expression

E(x) = 4

Hence, the expected value of the winnings from the game is $4

Helen [10]

Answer: a) $2155, b) $1763.03.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of cable knit sweaters = 15

Cost per sweaters = $65.00

Number of pairs of khaki twill pants = 22

Cost of each pair = $50.00

Number of casual jackets = 18

Cost of each jackets = $62.00

total sale volume would be

15\times 65+22\times 50+18\times 62\\\\=\$3191

Employee discount = 35%

Additional discount = 15%

So, Total markdown dollars taken is given by

3191\times \dfrac{100-35}{100}\times \dfrac{100-15}{100}\\\\=3191\times \dfrac{65}{100}\times \dfrac{85}{100}\\\\=3191\times 0.65\times 0.85\\\\=\$1763.0275

Hence, a) $2155, b) $1763.03.

x=x0*[1/2]n
putting the values 
375=3000*[1/2]n
375/3000=<span>[1/2]n
</span>1/8=<span>[1/2]n
simplify
[1/2]3=</span><span>[1/2]n
by cancelling them
so n=3
so it will take 3 minutes

Compare the numbers by entering &lt;, &gt;, or =.
Andrew [12]
Your answer would be:
596.64 = 596.640
Reasoning= If you just take away the zero from 596.640 you would have the same answer as 596.64. Now if you add a zero to 596.64 you still would have the same answer, therefore they are equal.
Hope this helps! (:
