The slope-intercept form of a line is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. We know that if 2 lines are parallel to one another, their slopes are exactly the same. So the slope of the new line is 5, just like the slope of the original line.  We also have a coordinate in the form of (x, y) to fit into that line equation and solve it for b.  Like this: -1 = 5(-6) + b and -1 = -30 + b and b = 29. Now we can rewrite the equation fitting in the given slope and the newly found y-intercept value of 29: y = 5x + 29 is the new line.

When playing roulette at a​ casino, a gambler is trying to decide whether to bet $5 on the number 25 or to bet $5 that the outco
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

a) -$3.03; b) The $5 on the number 25

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the expected value, multiply each probability by its value and then add them together.

The probability of making a profit of $20 is 3/38; this gives us

3/38(20) = 60/38

The probability of losing $5 is 35/38; this gives us

35/38(-5) = -175/38

Together, this gives us

60/38-175/38 = -115/38 ≈ $-3.03

b) Since the expected value for the $5 bet on a single number is $-0.53, and the expected value for the $5 on either 00, 0 or 1 is $-3.03, the better bet is on the number 25.  The expected value loses less money with this option.

At a company meeting, there were 996 people in attendance. 25% of them were managers. How many managers were in the meeting?
nalin [4]

They are asking for managers so 996 of them are there, 25% are managers

Change the percent to a decimal (divide the percent number by 100)

You get 0.25

So multiply 996 by 0.25

You get 249

So there are <u>249 managers at the meeting</u>
