Using the expected value, it is found that the mean of the distribution equals $0.1.
- The expected value, which is the mean of the distribution, is given by <u>each outcome multiplied by it's probability</u>.
The probabilities of <u>each outcome</u> are:
- .0000001 probability of earning $1,000,000.
- .9999999 probability of earning $0.
Thus, the mean is given by:

Thus showing that the expected value is $0.1.

<em>Here we are required to determine the initial monthly fee charged by the electric company.</em>
The initial fee charged by the electric company is; C = $10
To solve this, we need to evaluate the slope and intercepts of the equation of the straight line graph of the relation.
y = mx + c.
- where m = slope of the relation.
- and c = <em>intercept = the initial fee charged by the electric company</em>.
- y = <em>Monthly charge at each time</em>.
To find the slope;
By substituting m into the equation y = mx + c, alongside a pair of values of usage and monthly charge, we can obtain the intercept, c (i.e the initial fee charged).
Therefore, m = 0.12 , y = 82 and X = 600;
we then have;
Therefore, the initial fee charged by the electric company is; C = $10.

Answer
so there are 7 singing acts and 5 comedy acts.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x= number of singing acts.
Let y= number of comedy acts.
We will take x+y=12 as our first equation, as there are 12 shows in total. We will take 5x+3y=50 as our second equation as there are 50 total minutes, and singing acts are 5 mins and comedy acts are 3 mins.
We solve x+y=12
Y=-x+12
We know y=-x+12, so we will substitute that for the y in the second equation.
1. Substitute 5x+3(-x+12)=50
2. Distribute 5x-3x+36=50
3. Solve 2x+36=50
2x=14
X=7
Now that we have found x, we will find y by substitute the x in 5x+3y=50 with the value, 7, that we found for x.
5(7)+3y=50
35+3y=50
3y=15
Y=5
ANSWER:
There are 30 geese.
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
Let y be the total no. of animals
Share= ratio/total ratio X total
50= 5/8 X y
50= 5y/8
50 X 8= 5y
y= 400/5
y= 80
The total no. of animals is 80
80-50=30 ans.
