P(sum = 6) = 5/36 ; P(sum = 12) = 1/36

expected payoff = (5/36)(5) + (1/36)(9) = $0.94

What is the answer to 18 - 3w = 4w

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$18 - 3w = 4w$

Let's get all of the terms with the $w$ on the right-hand side of the equation, and everything else on the left-hand side of the equation.

To do this, we should add $3w$ to both sides of the equation to remove the $-3w$ from the left-hand side of the equation:

$18 - 3w + 3w = 4w + 3w$

$18 = 7w$

Finally, to get the $w$ by itself, we can divide both sides by $7$ :

$\frac{18}{7} = \frac{7w}{7}$

$w = \frac{18}{7}$

Please help me!<br> Hint: the number is negative

wel

Answer:

$-36$ goes into the box

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be $x$ , then

$(m^x)^{\frac{1}{3}}=m^{-12}$

We now use the following property of exponents to simplify the left hand side of the equation.

$(a^m)^n=a^{mn}$

This implies that;

$m^{x\times \frac{1}{3}}=m^{-12}$

$\Rightarrow m^{\frac{x}{3}}=m^{-12}$

Since the bases are the same, we equate the exponents to get;

${\frac{x}{3}=-12$

We now multiply both sides by 3 to get;

$\frac{x}{3}\times 3=-12\times 3$

$\Rightarrow x =-36$

Therefore the number that goes into the box is $-36$
