^ is in the thousadths place so look for the number before it, which is 3. 3 is less than 5 so 6 stays as is so it becomes 1.736
its c! there isnt a decrease between x = -1 and x = 0, as when x = -1 y = 0 and when x = 0 y = 2, showing an increase of +2.
If you would like to solve the inequality x - 5/x < 4, you can do this using the following steps:
<span>x - 5/x < 4
</span>x^2 - 5 < 4x
x^2 - 4x - 5 < 0
(x - 5) * (x + 1) < 0
x < 0
1. x = 5
2. x = -1
The correct result would be x = -1.
Answer:
6 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
A=b1+b2/2*h
Fill in the equation with what we know
21=8+x/2*3
Isolate x
Quick steps: 21/3=7*2=14-8=6
x=6
Expected value of the bet is
the sum of the products of value of outcome and its probability,
less the amount paid to place the bet.
Outcomes value probability
win 225 1/4
lose 0 3/4
cost of bet = 40
So expected value of bet
E[X]=225*(1/4)+0*(3/4)-40
=56.25-40
=16.25
This means that in the long run, gambler will win, since the expected value is positive. (does NOT mean she will win in the next bet!)
