A game of chance involves rolling an unevenly balanced 4-sided die. The probability that a roll comes up 1 is 0.22, the probabil

ity that a roll comes up 1 or 2 is 0.42, and the probability that a roll comes up 2 or 3 is 0.54 . If you win the amount that appears on the die, what is your expected winnings? (Note that the die has 4 sides.)

Answer:

Expected Winnings = 2.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the probability of rolling a 1 is 0.22 and the probability of rolling either a 1 or a 2 is 0.42, the probability of rolling only a 2 can be determined as:

P_{1,2} = P_{1}+P_{2}\\P_{2} = 0.42 - 0.22 = 0.20

The same logic can be applied to find the probability of rolling a 3

P_{2,3} = P_{2}+P_{3}\\P_{3} = 0.54 - 0.20 = 0.34

The sum of all probabilities must equal 1.00, so the probability of rolling a 4 is:

P_{4} =1- P_{1}+P_{2}+P_{3} = 1-0.22+0.20+0.34\\P_{4}=0.24

The expected winnings (EW) is found by adding the product of each value by its likelihood:

EW=1*P_{1}+2*P_{2}+ 3*P_{3}+ 4*P_{4} \\EW=1*0.22+2*0.20+ 3*0.34+ 4*0.24\\EW=2.6

Expected Winnings = 2.6

Please help.i am really struggling

Answer:

3,-3) becomes ; (3 + 5 , -3-12) ; (8,-15)

(7,-10) becomes;( 7 + 5, -10-12) ; (12,-22)

(13,-14) becomes (7 + 13, -14-10) ; (20,-24)

Step-by-step explanation:

What we have to do here is to add 5 to the x-axis value and subtract 12 from the y-axis value

(3,-3) becomes ; (3 + 5 , -3-12) ; (8,-15)

(7,-10) becomes;( 7 + 5, -10-12) ; (12,-22)

(13,-14) becomes (7 + 13, -14-10) ; (20,-24)

Instructions: Find the measure of the indicated angle to the nearest
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

To find the indicated angle, we can use one of the three main trigonometric functions: sine, cosine, or tangent.

Remember: SOH-CAH-TOA

Looking from the angle, we know the adjacent side and the hypotenuse. Therefore, we should use cosine to solve.

cos(x) = 12/36

x = cos^-1(12/36)

x = 71 degrees

Hope this helps!
