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

For all real numbers a and b, 2a • b = a2 + b2 Is this true or false? Explain why it false or true.
Andru [333]

Answer:

It's false.... correct is a2+2ab+b2

Step-by-step explanation:

This cannot be factored anymore although. when we try to substitute a with 5 and b with 2, the answer in the right hand side of the equation is -9.

That's why it's false.

f-354=1221           <em>add 354 to both sides</em>

f+354-354=1221+354\\\\\boxed{f=1,575}\to\boxed{D.}
