Answer:

6 games

Step-by-step explanation:

if one lady had 3 pieces of candy, that means she must have gotten them from the other lady. And since the other lady had only won 3 games, that means that she must have lost an additional 3, so she had to give her candy to the other lady.

Evaluate 1/3 m- 1- 1/2 n when m=21 and n=12
liq [111]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to identify 1/3 m. We know that m is 21 and 1/3 of 21 is 7.

Then we find 1/2 on n which we know is 12 so 1/2 of 12 is 6.

Then we subtract. 7-1 is 6 and 6-6 is 0

Hope this helped!!! :D

Look at the figure: An image of a right triangle is shown with an angle labeled x. If tan x° = e divided by 8 and sin x° = e div
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

cos x = 8/f.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the identity :

tan x = sin x / cos x.

Substituting:

e/8 = e/f / cos x

e/8 * cos x = e/f

cos x = e/f * 8/e

cos x = 8e / fe

cos x = 8/f.

You have 4 cards, 2 black and 2 red. You play a game where during each round you draw a card. If it's black, you lose a point. I
sineoko [7]

Answer: The expected value of this game is 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Give that

If it's black, you lose a point. If it's red, you gain a point. 

And then you can stop at any time. But you should never stop when you are losing because that can guarantee 0 by drawing all the cards.

Assuming you should stop after three cards when you are +2.

The only question is whether to draw if you are +1 on the first draw.

If you draw red first, You have 1/3 chance of drawing red again and this will give you +2 points

1/3 chance of drawing two blacks and earn zero point, chance of drawing black-red and earn +1. This gives +1, so it doesn't matter whether you draw or not.

From the beginning, If you draw red (probability 1/2 you end +1. If you draw black and then draw two reds (probability 1/6 you end +1) Otherwise you break even with probability 1/3. Overall, the value is 2/3
