The answer is 0.4.

The values are:
- for the black chip : x₁ = 2
- for the red chip: x₂ = -1

Let's first calculate the possibilities of each chip. There are in total 5 chips (<span>two black chips and three red chips) in the bag
 </span>- the possibility to draw the black chip is 2 out of 5:    P₁ = 2/5
 - the possibility to draw the red chip is 3 out of 5:       P₂ = 3/5

In this example we have 4 different events:
1. Drawing of two black chips: P₃ = P₁ · P₁ = 2/5 · 2/5 = 4/25
2. Drawing of one black chip and then one red chip: P₄ = P₁ · P₂ = 2/5 · 3/5 = 6/25
3. Drawing of one red chip and then one black chip: P₅ = P₂ · P₁ = 3/5 · 2/5 = 6/25
5. Drawing of two black chips: P₆ = P₂ · P₂ = 3/5 <span>· 3/5 = 9/25
</span>

Therefore, <span>the expected value for each round if there are two draws per round and the chips are replaced after each draw is 0.4:
P = (x</span>₁ + x₁) · P₃ + (x₁ + x₂) · P₄ + (x₁ + x₂) · P₅ + (x₂ + x₂) · P₆
P = (2+2) · 4/25 + (2-1) · 6/25 + (2-1) · 6/25 + (-1 + -1) · 9/25
P = 4 · 4/25 + 1 · 6/25 + 1 · <span>6/25</span> + -2 · <span>9/25
P = 16/25 + 6/25 + 6/25 - 18/25
P = 28/25 - 18/25
P = 10/25 = 0.4</span>

Vince's birthday party is going to be at his favorite science museum next weekend. He has 8 friends who want to see the Dinosaur
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Dinosaur Discovery show = 8 friends

Wild Weather show = 4 friends

Cost of Dinosaur Discovery show = $d

Cost of Wild Weather show = $w

At regular price:

Total cost of his friends' tickets = 8 * d + 4 * w

= 8d + 4w

At half price

Total cost of his friends' tickets =

8 * 1/2d + 4 * 1/2w

= 8/2d + 4/2w

= 4d + 2w

Total cost of his friends' tickets = 4d + 2w
