Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A game is played as follows:

A coin is flipped 3 times.

If 3 heads come up, then you win $5.

If 2 heads come up, then you lose $5.

If 1 head comes up, then you lose $4.

If no heads (all tails) come up, then you win $4.

No of heads X     0    1    2     3

Prob              p     \frac{1}{8} , \frac{3}{8} ,\frac{3}{8} ,\frac{1}{8}

Win                        5  -5   -4    4

Expected win of the game = Sum of win amount * Prob

=\frac{5}{8} +\frac{-15}{8}+ \frac{-12}{8} +\frac{4}{8} \\=\frac{-18}{8}

Since expected value is not 0 the game is not fair.

Answer:

  f⁻¹(x) = √((3 -x)/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

A function gives you a y-value for each value of x.

  y = f(x)

__

An inverse function tells you the x value that produced a given y-value. It is the solution to the equation ...

  x = f(y)

So, we want to find y for ...

  x = -3y² +3

  x -3 = -3y² . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 3

  (x -3)/-3 = y² . . . . . . . . . divide by -3

  √((x -3)/-3) = y . . . . . . . take the square root.

The requirement for x > 0 in the original function means y > 0 for the inverse function. That is why we use the positive square root.

This can be simplified a little bit to remove the minus sign from the denominator.

  f⁻¹(x) = √((3 -x)/3)

__

The graph plots the function and its inverse. They are reflections of each other over the line y=x. (That's one way you can tell you have the correct inverse function.)

About 1313​% of the population of a large country is hopelessly romantichopelessly romantic. If two people are randomly​ selecte
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Probability both are hopelessly romantic = 0.0169

Probability at least one is hopelessly romantic = 0.2431

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that about 1313​% of the population of a large country is hopelessly romantic.

Also, given two people are randomly​ selected.

Firstly, Let <em>Probability that the population of a large country is hopelessly romantic = P(R) = 0.13 </em>

(a) Probability both are hopelessly romantic is given by = Probability that first person is hopelessly romantic \times Probability that second person is hopelessly romantic

                         = P(R) \times P(R)

                         = 0.13 \times 0.13 = <u>0.0169</u>

(b) Now, Probability that the population of a large country is not hopelessly romantic = P(R') = 1 - P(R) = 1 - 0.13 = 0.87.

So, Probability at least one is hopelessly romantic is given by = 1 - Probability that none of them is hopelessly romantic

                         = 1 - (P(R') \times P(R'))

                         = 1 - (0.87 \times 0.87)

                         = 1 - 0.7569 = <u>0.2431</u>
