on a popular fictional game show, contestants are given the opportunity to win money by reaching into a bag after being blindfol

ded and selecting a chip with a dollar amount written on it. assume all chips are identical. the bag contains four chips with a $0 amount, six chips with $1, five chips with $5, two chips with $10, and one chip with $100. the chips are mixed in the bag before the contestant draws their chip. a. construct a probability mass function (pmf) for x, the dollar amount won by a contestant in this game. b. what is the expected value for x?

Construct a probability mass function (pmf) for x, the dollar amount won by a contestant in this game is 1/18.

What is a probability math example?

  • Probability is the measurement of how likely something is to happen.
  • As an example, since there is only one way to get a head and a total of two possible results, the likelihood of flipping a coin and getting heads is one in two. a tail or a head.
  • We write P(heads) = 12 here. The four most popular approaches to probability are axiomatic, classical, empirical, and subjective.

from above total number of chips =4+6+5+2+1 =18

hence Probabilty of win 0 P(0)=4/18

P(1) =6/18

P(5) =5/18

P(10) =2/18

P(100)=1/18

x     P(x)     xP(x)

0    0.22     0.00

1     0.33      0.33

5     0.28       1.39

10      0.11       1.11

100     0.06      5.56

                       8.39

therefore expeted value =8.39

Step-by-step explanation:

First write an equation:

Location A-   800+100x

Location B-  1200+200x

Then you need to plug numbers in for x

Help needed math 3 - 10 points read closely

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The answer is the fourth option,

f(-3)=-\frac{1}{3}

<h2>Why?</h2>

Piecewise functions are functions that are composed by two or more expressions, the expression to use will depend of the domain or input that we need to evaluate.

We are given the piecewise function:

\left \{ {{\frac{1}{x}, if x

There, we know that:

We should use the first expression if the value to evaluate is less than -2.

So, for this case, the function will be:

f(x)=\frac{1}{x}

We should use the second expression if the value to evaluate is greater or equal than 2.

So, for this case, the function will be:

f(x)=x^{2}

Now, since we are given that the value to evaluate is -3, and its less than -2, we need to use the first expression, and evaluate it.

-3

So, evaluating the function we have:

f(x)=\frac{1}{x}

f(-3)=\frac{1}{-3}

f(-3)=-\frac{1}{3}

Hence, we have that the answer is the fourth option,

f(-3)=-\frac{1}{3}

Have a nice day!
