g Suppose you have $100 of endowment, and you are offered a chance to buy a lottery which costs $36. The lottery has 18% of chan

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

$301.23

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the function of wealth is U (w) = w ^ (1/2)

So, since what you have at the start is 100, we replace:

U (w) = 100 ^ (1/2)

U = 10

Now we have two cases:

the first one we win, then the winnings would be 100 minus the cost of the lottery, that is 36 and to that add G of the prize:

100 - 36 + G = 64 + G

In the second case, where we lose, the subtraction of 100 that we have minus the cost of the lottery would be equal 36

100 - 36 = 64

Therefore, we have to win with an 18% probability, therefore losing would be 82% (100% - 18%)

0.18 * (64 + G) ^ (1/2) + 0.82 * 64 ^ (1/2)

solving:

0.18 * (64 + G) ^ (1/2) + 6.56

Now this is equal to U which is equal to 10:

10 = 0.18 * (64 + G) ^ (1/2) + 6.56

(10 - 6.56) /0.18 = (64 + G) ^ (1/2)

(64 + G) ^ (1/2) = 19.11

(64 + G) = 365.23

G = 365.23 - 64

G = 301.23

Therefore, the smallest G prize size that the lottery will be willing to buy is $ 301.23

You have seven cards, numbered 3 through 9, and you pick one at random. If you pick a card with a prime number, you get 1 point;

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

He has $\frac{-1}{7}$ number of points

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given that numbers from 3 to 9

So numbers will be 3,4,5,6,7,8,9

Here prime numbers are 3,5,7

And composite numbers are 4,6,8,9

So probability of getting prime number = $\frac{3}{7}$

And probability of getting composite number $=\frac{4}{7}$

It is given that if he gets prime number then he get 1 point and if he get composite number then he loss 1 point '

So value of number of point he has = $1\times \frac{3}{7}-1\times \frac{4}{7}=\frac{-1}{7}$

Answer:

2nd option

Step-by-step explanation:

using the converse of Pyhagoras' identity

If the square of the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides then the triangle is right.

longest side = 100 , then 100² = 10000

60² + 80² = 3600 + 6400 = 10000

then

60² + 80² = 100²

thus the triangle is right
