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
Answer:
The answer here would be 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
If a and b are both equal distances from 0, then adding the together would equal 0. Since a is the inverse of b, using any number and its inverse will show you why the answer is 0. For example, if b is 9 then a would be -9. Adding these together equals 0.
Answer:
2x^2+2x
Step-by-step explanation:
The large squares are x^2.
The rectangles are x
The small squares are 1
We have 2 large squares = 2x^2
and 2 rectangles = 2x
2x^2+2x
3a+b+c
The perimeter is two times one side (to account for the opposite) and two times the adjacent side. So if the sides would be x and y, the perimeter would be 2*x + 2*y.
So, knowing that the sum is 16a+8b-6c, if we subtract the given side 5a+3b-4c from this, what remains is two times the "other" side:
16a+8b-6c - 2*(5a+3b-4c) =
16a+8b-6c -10a-6b+8c =
6a+2b+2c
half of that is
(6a+2b+2c)/2 = 3a+b+c
The third one I think I'm not sure
