The total combinations of 5 numbers that can be made from 59 numbers is:

59C5 = 5,006,386

So the probability of winning is:

P = 1 / 5,006,386

P = 1.997 x 10^-7

 

So the expected payoff is:

P = $1,000,000 (1.997 x 10^-7) - $1 (1 - 1.997 x 10^-7)

<span>P = - $0.80           (loss)</span>

1. -5(x - 2) - (x + 2) = 50
Serjik [45]

Answer:

x = - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 5(x - 2) - (x + 2) = 50 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

- 5x + 10 - x - 2 = 50, that is

- 6x + 8 = 50 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

- 6x = 42 ( divide both sides by - 6 )

x = - 7

It costs Guido $0.20 per minute to forward voicemail messages as texts to his cell phone. He already spent $4 in forwarding mess
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

10 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of minutes = x

It costs Guido $0.20 per minute to forward voicemail messages as texts to his cell phone. He already spent $4 in forwarding messages this month.

For Guido

$4 + 0.20x

His mom has spent $2 forwarding messages. It costs her $0.40 per minute so she can call long distance.

For his mum

$2 + 0.40x

Guido's mom said they have to spend the same amount.

Equating both Equations together

$4 + 0.20x = $2 + 0.40x

$4 - $2 = 0.40x - 0.20x

2 = 0.20x

x = 2/0.20

x = 10 minutes

Guido can talk for 10 minutes
