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>

Ne4ueva [31]

We want to write an inequality that tells how much Hannah should walk this week. The inequality will be:

x ≥ (3 + 3/4) mi

<h3>Finding the inequality:</h3>

We know that she already did walk 2 3/4 miles this week, and she wants to walk at least 6 1/2 miles.

So to reach that minimum, she needs to walk:

(6  1/2)mi - (2 + 3/4) mi = (3 + 3/4) mi

And she can walk that or more, so the inequality is:

x ≥ (3 + 3/4) mi

Where x represents how much she will walk this week.
