Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected value of female children= Probability of female children x Total number of children.

A child can be male or female, so there are 2 combinations, favorable outcome is female.

Probability of female children =\frac{1}{2}

Expected value of female children =\frac{1}{2}\times 3=1.5

Option B is the correct answer.

The answer is 1.5 females, one way to solve this is to multiply the probability of a female (50%) with the number of girls in total = 3 multiplied by (50%) = 1.5.

the profit for a taco truck business follows this function, where x is the price of a taco(in dollars) and y is the daily profit
Sati [7]

Answer:

x = √2 + 2, -√2 + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2(x-2)² + 4

-2(x-2)² + 4 = 0 --- replace y with 0

-2(x - 2)² = -4 --- subtract 4 from both sides

(x - 2)² = \frac{-4}{-2} --- divide both sides by -2

(x - 2)² = 2 --- simplify

x - 2 = +-√2 --- square root both sides

x - 2 = √2 --- split into 2 equations

x - 2 = -√2

x = √2 + 2 --- solve first equation

x = -√2 + 2 --- solve second equation

x = √2 + 2, -√2 + 2
