Answer:

a = 9\\b = 48\\c = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

In a deck of 52 cards there are 4 aces.

Therefore the probability of obtaining an ace is:

P (x) = 4/52

The probability of not getting an ace is:

P ('x) = 1-4 / 52

P ('x) = 48/52

In this problem the number of aces obtained when extracting cards from the deck is a discrete random variable.

For a discrete random variable V, the expected value is defined as:

E(V) = VP(V)

Where V is the value that the random variable can take and P (V) is the probability that it takes that value.

We have the following equation for the expected value:

E(V) = \frac{4}{52}(a) + \frac{b}{52}(c)

In this problem the variable V can take the value V = 9 if an ace of the deck is obtained, with probability of 4/52, and can take the value V = -1 if an ace of the deck is not obtained, with a probability of 48 / 52

Therefore, expected value for V, the number of points obtained in the game is:

E(V) = \frac{4}{52}(9) + \frac{48}{52}(-1)

So:

a = 9\\b = 48\\c = -1

The sum of two numbers is -10.5.
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

-5 and -5.5;

-12.5 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Two negative addends, can be added together to give -10.5.

For example:

(-5) + (-5.5) = -5 - 5.5 = -10.5

Also, it is possible for one of the addends to be negative while the other is positive, and their sum will give us -10.5.

For example:

The sum of -12.5 and 2 will give us -10.5.

We are adding a positive and a negative number here. As usual, we will subtract the smaller number from the bigger number, while the result will carry the sign of the bigger number, which in this case is negative sign.

Thus:

(-12.5) + (2) = -10.5

Δx→0 <br> −5(x + Δx) + 5x<br> Δx
marysya [2.9K]
I guess the original function was

y = 5x (1)

y+Δy =5(x+Δx) (2)

(2) - (1) =

Δy = 5Δx

Δx →0, Δy/Δx →5
