Answer:

<h2>The contestant should not play.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the given question, their current winning is $1 million.

The probability of the guessing to be true is 50% = \frac{50}{100} = \frac{1}{2}.

There is also a possibility of 50% to be wrong, which can reduced the winning amount to $500,000 that is the half of the current amount.

Hence, the contestant should not play.

For the function F(x)=1/x+1, whose graph is shown below, what is the relative value of F(x) when the value of x is close to -1.
daser333 [38]
Well as x can never actually be -1 because I'm in the denominator -1 + 1 = 0 and we cannot divide by zero. But we can look at what number it approaches and i assume that is the relative value. sometimes functions will have asymptotes and others will have holes in the graph. this one would have an asymptote going down at a rapid rate. the asymptote would go on forever getting infinitely close to -1 but never touching. So I would say since the asymptote goes down forever that the graph approaches negative infinity

On an airplane, there are two seats on the left side in each row and three seats on the right
pogonyaev

Answer:

a)64

b)96

Step-by-step explanation:

For this we calculate the number of rows, 32, as 2+3 is 5, and 160/5 is 32. Then we know that there are 32 rows, and in each row are 2 left seats and 3 right seats, so we multiply 32 by both numbers for the answers.

Question : 3/4+ 0.6 = ? 1.15 1.35 1.45 or 1.05
Artyom0805 [142]

we have

\frac{3}{4} +0.6

we know that

\frac{3}{4}=0.75

and

0.75=0.40+0.35

substitute in the expression

0.40+0.35 +0.6

(0.40+0.60)+0.35

(1.00)+0.35=1.35

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

1.35
