Hello! Here is a real world problem that could work:

Jennie currently has $5 in her allowance. For every time she helps cook dinner, she earns $2. Jennie wants to buy an art set that costs $23, before tax. How many times would she have to help with dinner, before she could buy the art set?

How to solve it:

Okay. $5 is the fixed amount (one-time price), and Jennie earns $2 each time she helps cook dinner. First, let's subtract 5 from both sides in order to get 2x > 18. Now, divide each side by 2 to isolate the "x". 18/2 = 9. x > 9.There. Jennie would have to help cook dinner 9 times, before she has $23, but we are looking for greater than, so she would have to help 10 times, before she had enough money to buy the art set.

-15.6 = -3.9r<br> please include an explanation of how you got your answer :) thanks
Mumz [18]

Here is the equation:

-15.6 = -3.9r

Since both decimals are negative, the answer will be positive.

  • Negative times Negative = Positive

Divide both sides by -3.9 to leave the variable alone:

-15.6 \div -3.9  = -3.9r \div -3.9 \\ 4 = r

r is equal to 4 → r = 4

Delvig [45]
B is correct. Explanation Below:
---
Line A never intersects Line B, as they are parallel lines-the slopes are the same-and parallel lines never intersect. 
Line A's Slope: (9-5)/(-1-1) = -2
Line B's Slope: (-6-2)/(4-0) = -2

Find the expected value of the winnings
lord [1]

Answer:

The expected value is $3.95

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the expected value

Mathematically, what we have to do here is to multiply each of the probabilities by the pay out value, before we proceed to add up

We have this as;

0(0.5) + 0.2(5) + 0.15(8) + 10(0.1) + 15(0.05)

= 0 + 1 + 1.2 + 1 + 0.75 = 3.95
