There is a 0.9968 probability that a randomly selected 50-year-old female lives through the year (based on data from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services).
-------------------
A Fidelity life insurance company charges $226 for insuring that the female will live through the year. If she does not survive the year, the policy pays out $50,000 as a death benefit.
From the perspective of the 50-year-old female, what are the values corresponding to the two events of surviving the year and not surviving?
----
Ans: -226 ; 50,000-226 = 49774
-------------------------
If a 50-year-old female purchases the policy, what is her expected value?
WORK TRIED:
In the event she lives, the value is -$226. In the event she dies, the value is $49,774.
----
E(x) = 0.9968*(-226) + 0.0032(49774) = -$66

If the ones digit is "d", the number is (d+4)(2(d+4))(d), and the sum of digits is 4d+12 = 12. Then d=0.
The number is 480.
Answer:
answer is D
Step-by-step explanation:
12+1/2=12.5 12+2/5=12.4
Answer:
f(x) and g(x) have the same x-intercepts (is <em>not true</em>)
Step-by-step explanation:
g(x) is a reflection across the y-axis and a horizontal compression of f(x). In general those transformations will move the x-intercepts. (The y-intercept and the number of x-intercepts will remain unchanged.)
_____
<em>Comment on the question/answer</em>
f(x) = x^3 is a 3rd degree polynomial. When transformed to g(x) = -8x^2, its only x-intercept (x=0) remains the same. The answer above will not apply in any instance where the only x-intercept is on the line of reflection. (The question is flawed in that it does not make any exception for such functions.)
A rotation on its axis of 180 degrees
