Ok <span>so let's say that you have a 3/13 chance of winning $3 and a 2/13 chance of winning $10 and a 8/13 chance of winnning $0. </span>

<span>Therefore if the dice is rolled 13 times, I am expected to win 3X$3 + 2X$10 = $29 </span>

<span>But I am paying $5 per roll so 13 rolls would cost me 13X$5 = $65 </span>

<span>So therefore my expected net winnings is $29-$65 = -$36 </span>

<span>I would lose $36 according to chance.
I hope this help's. Good luck!

Naddik [55]

The rate for the first is 1 job / 35 minutes and for the second is 1 job / 15 minutes.  So combined we get

r = 1/35 + 1/15

3×5×7r = 3 + 7 = 10

r = 10/(105) jobs per minute

We're interested in 1/r

1/r = 105/10 = 10.5 minutes per job

Answer: 10.5 minutes

navik [9.2K]

10t = b - 4

12b+8t = $348

This is a system of equations. I’ll be solving through substitution.

In the first equation. solving for b (the easier variable to isolate) gives you:

b = 10t + 4

Substitute this into the second equation:

12(10t+4) +8t = 348

120t+48+8t = 348

128t = 300

t = 2.34375 —> round it to the nearest cent to get 2.34 dollars

b = 10t+4

b = 10(2.34)+4

b = 27.4 dollars
