Answer:
The mathematical expectation of a student who purchases 10 tickets is -$39.65.
Step-by-step explanation:
A student that purchases 10 tickets out of 2900 has a probability of winning the cruise that can be calculated as:

Each ticket cost $5, so he has spent $50 for the 10 tickets.
Then, the expected value of this operation is equal to the expected value of the earnings (probability of winning the prize multiplied by the value of the prize), minus the costs:

The mathematical expectation of a student who purchases 10 tickets is -$39.65.

Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Less than 5 is 1,2,3,4 and 4 out of 6 is also equal to 2/3
Answer: I am just hoping that this is the correct answer
Step-by-step explanation:
2(-6 + -5y) + (2y + -8) = 0
(-6 * 2 + -5y * 2) + (2y + -8) = 0
(-12 + -10y) + (2y + -8) = 0
Reorder the terms:
-12 + -10y + (-8 + 2y) = 0
Remove parenthesis around (-8 + 2y)
-12 + -10y + -8 + 2y = 0
Reorder the terms:
-12 + -8 + -10y + 2y = 0
Combine like terms: -12 + -8 = -20
-20 + -10y + 2y = 0
Combine like terms: -10y + 2y = -8y
-20 + -8y = 0
Solving
-20 + -8y = 0
Solving for variable 'y'.
Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '20' to each side of the equation.
-20 + 20 + -8y = 0 + 20
Combine like terms: -20 + 20 = 0
0 + -8y = 0 + 20
-8y = 0 + 20
Combine like terms: 0 + 20 = 20
-8y = 20
Divide each side by '-8'.
y = -2.5
Simplifying
y = -2.5
Yes it is
It means whatever the x value is the y value will equal 2.7 making it just a horizontal line
