Answer:

438 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :R is the midpoint of QS , QR = 8x - 51 and RS = 3x-6

To Find : What is QS?

Solution:

Since R is the Mid Point of QAS

So, QR = RS

8x - 51=3x-6

8x - 3x=51-6

5x=45

x=9

QS = QR+RS

QS= 8x-51+3x-6

QS= 11x-57

x = 45

QS= 11(45)-57

QS= 438

Hence the length of QS is 438 units .

If R is the midpoint, then R splits QS into 2 equal sections. Therefore, QR = RS.

8x - 51 = 3x - 6
8x - 3x = -6 + 51
5x = 45
x = 45/5
x = 9

so QR = 8(9) - 51 : 72 - 51 = 21 and RS = 3(9) - 6 = 27 - 6 = 21
so QS = 21 + 21 = 42 <==

Solve the system of equations by the addition method <br> { 5x-y=-3<br> { 4x+3y=-48
Svetach [21]

Answer:

(-3,-12)

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the first equation by three to match the second equations y-term

  • 3(5x-y=-3)
  • 4x+3y=-48

  • 15x-3y=-9
  • 4x+3y=-48

The y-terms cancel out

  • 15x=-9
  • 4x=-48

Add the x-terms with each other and the terms after the equal sign as well

  • 19x=-57

Divide -57 by 19

  • x=-3

Input your x-term (-3) into one of the two first equations and multiply

Either:

  • 5(-3)-y=-3 or
  • 4(-3)+3y=-48

  • -15-y=-3 or
  • -12+3y=-48

Simplify your terms

  • -y=12
  • 3y=-36

Divide

  • y=-12
  • y=-12

In a carnival​ game, the player selects a ball one at a​ time, without​ replacement, from an urn containing twotwo purplepurple
dezoksy [38]
<span>The urn contains 2 purple balls and 4 white balls. The player pay $4 for start the game and get $1.5 for every ball drawn until one purple ball is drawn. The maximal revenue would be $7.5 when 4 white balls and 1 purple balls are drawn.
If the purple ball is p and white ball is w, t</span>he possible sample space of drawings are {p, wp, wwp, wwwp, wwwwp}

<span>1. Write down the probability distribution for the player earning

The player earning </span>for each event depends on the number of balls drawn subtracted the ticket price.<span>
p= 2/6
The player earnings would be: 1*$1.5 -$4= - $2.5
wp= (4*2)/(6*5) = 4/15
</span>The player earnings would be: 2*1.5- $4= - $1
wwp= (4*3*2)/(6*5*4)= 1/5
The player earnings would be: 3*$1.5 -$4= $0.5
wwwp= (4*3*2*2)/(6*5*4*3*2)= 2/15 
The player earnings would be: 4*$1.5 -$4= $2
wwwwp= (4*3*2*2*1)/(6*5*4*3*2*1) = 1/15
The player earnings would be: 5*$1.5 -$4=  $3.5

2. Find its expected value

The expected value would be:
chance of event * earning 
You need to combine the 5 possible outcomes from the number 1 to get the total expected value.

Total expected value= (1/3 * - 2.5)+ (4/15*-1) + (1/5*0.5) + (2/15 *2) + ( 1/15 *3.5)= 
(-12.5  -4 + 1.5 + 4 + 3.5) /15= -$7.5
This game basically a rip off.
