Answer:

Loss of $4.78

Loss of $478

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected value = Sum of (winning amount x winning probability) - cost of lottery ticket

Expected value = ( $10 x 1/100 + $100 x 1/1000 + $1 million x 1/$50 million ) - $5

Expected value= $0.22 - $5

Expected value= - $4.78

The Negative value of expected value indicates loss)

Amount expected to lose if 100 tickets are bought = 100 x $4.78 = $478

Which reason is the correct answer
Furkat [3]
Answer:
D. Reflexive Property

In order to prove that segment AB is congruent to segment ED, you need to first prove that triangle ACB is congruent to triangle ECD.
Reflexive property is not used as a reason to prove since no angles or segments are shared.

Hope this helps!!
