Answer:

Expected Value: $0.75    

Expected win after 200 plays: $150

Step-by-step explanation:

Succeed: roll two even values

Possibilities to succeed:

2, 2

2, 4

2, 6

4, 2

4, 4

4, 6

6, 2

6, 4

6, 6

They make 9 possible ways. There are 36 possible outcomes after rolling 2 dice . Therefore:

Probability of winning = 9/36 = 0.25

Probability of losing = 1 - 0.25 = 0.75

The expected value is computed as follows:

probability of winning * the value you get when you win + probability of losing* value you get when you lose

Expected Value = 0.25 * $15 + 0.75*(-$4) = $0.75    

Notice that the $4 is negative because it is a loss .

If you play 200 times your expected win is:  200* $0.75 = $ 150

The sides of a triangle have lengths 2x + 2, 4x, and 5x + 1. The longest side of the triangle has a length of 5x + 1. For what v
Savatey [412]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(5x+1)²>(2x+2)²+(4x)²

25x²+10x+1>4x²+8x+4+16x²

5x²+2x-3>0

5x²+5x-3x-3>0

5x(x+1)-3(x+1)>0

(x+1)(5x-3)>0

x+1=0,gives x=-1

5x-3=0,gives x=3/5

x >0(because 4x should be >0)

side is always positive.

so x>3/5

again 5x+1<2x+2+4x

5x-6x<2-1

-x<1

x>-1

x=all real values >3/5
