Answer:
The expected value of this game is -$0.26.
Step-by-step explanation:
Expected value:
Each possible earning/loss multiplied by it's probability.
Probability:
Number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
In this question, the order in which the numbers are chosen is not important. So we use the combinations formula to solve.
Combinations formula:
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
Probability of winning:
Desired outcomes:
The 6 correct numbers, so
Total outcomes:
6 numbers from a set of 21. So
Probability:
Expected value
probability of earning 40,000.
probability of losing 1. So
The expected value of this game is -$0.26.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(4,6) and (20,14) are points on the line.
slope of line = (14-6)/(20-4) = 8/16= 1/2
point-slope equation for line of slope 1/2 that passes through (6,4):
y-4 = (½)(x-6)
in slope-intercept form:
y = ½x + 1
y-intercept = 1
P(n)=news time/total time
We are told that the news is 14 minutes long during an hour so
p(n)=14/60
p(n)=7/30
Answer:
The answer to your question is below
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
Factor the numerator is a polynomial of the form x² + bx + c
s² - 3s - 28 = (s - 7)( s + 4)
Substitute
Simplify like terms
Result s + 4
b)
Factor the numerator is a polynomial of the form x² + bx + c
c² + 5c - 24 = (c + 8)(c - 3)
Substitute
Simplify like terms c - 3
Result c - 3
