First, determine the distance of the motorcycle and the car from the start point. The distance could be determined using
\boxed{d=v \times t}
d stands for distance, v stands for speed, t stands for time

The car
d = 48 × t
d = 48t

The motorcycle
d = 20 × t
d = 20t

At the end of t hours, the car is 48t miles (east) from the start point and the motorcycle is 20t miles (north) from the start point.

Second, determine the distance between 48t miles at east and 20t miles at north using pythagoras
distance = \sqrt{(48t)^{2}+(20t)^{2}}
distance = \sqrt{2304t^{2}+400t^{2}}
distance = \sqrt{2704t^{2}}
distance = 52t

The expression for their distance apart at the end of t hours is 52t

What is represented by p v q?
Stella [2.4K]
\lor is the logical or/disjunction symbol. p\lor q means "p or q". Disjunction is commutative, which means p\lor q is equivalent to q\lor p.

So if p represents x and q represents x>3, then p\lor q\equiv q\lor p means x>3 or x.

A roulette wheel has the numbers 1 through 36, 0, and 00. A bet on three numbers pays 11 to 1 (that is, if you bet $1 and one of
OLga [1]

Answer:

You are expected to lose $0.05 (or win -$0.05)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the roulette wheel has the numbers 1 through 36, 0, and 00, there are 38 possible outcomes.

In this bet, you are allowed to pick 3 out of the 38 numbers. Thus, your chances of winning (P(W)) and losing (P(L)) are:

P(W)=\frac{3}{38}\\P(L) = 1 - P(W)\\P(L) = \frac{35}{38}\\

The expected value of the bet is given by the sum of the product of each outcome pay by its probability. Winning the bet means winning $11 while losing the bet means losing $1. The expected value is:

EV = (11*\frac{3}{38}) -(1*\frac{35}{38})\\EV = -\$0.0525

Therefore, with a $1 bet, you are expected to lose roughly $0.05
