Answer: $=\frac{-1}{16}$

Step-by-step explanation:

given data:

number to be chosen from = 1,2,3,4.

<u><em>Solution:</em></u>

ways the number can show

$2*3*1=6$ ways for your number to appear once.

$1*1=1$ ways for your number to appear twice.

$3*3=9$ ways for your number not to appear at all

$= \frac{6(1) + 1(2) - 9(1)}{16}$

$= \frac{6+2-9}{16}$

$=\frac{-1}{16}$

expected return of the player is $=\frac{-1}{16}$

solmaris [256]

Answer:

Pual needs 3 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ The dimensions of the four walls are:

25 × 8 , 30 × 8 , 25 × 8 , 30 × 8

∴ The area of painting = 2(25 × 8) + 2(30 × 8)

= 400 + 480 = 880 square feet

∵ each gallon paint 400 square feet

∴ The number of gallons = 880/400 = 2.2, so he needs 3 gallons

Solving Exponential and Logarithmic Equations In Exercise, solve for x.<br> 500(1.075)120x = 100.000

Volgvan

Answer:

The solution is:

$x = 0.61$

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to solve this equation is placing everything with the exponential to one side of the equality, and everything without the exponential to the other side. So

$500(1.075)^{120x} = 100000$

$(1.075)^{120x} = \frac{100000}{500}$

$(1.075)^{120x} = 200$

To find x, we have to apply log to both sides of the equality.

We also have that:

$\log{a^{x}} = x\log{a}$

So

$\log{(1.075)^{120x}} = \log{200}$

$120x\log{1.075} = 2.30$

$120x*0.03 = 2.30$

$3.77x = 2.30$

$x = \frac{2.30}{3.77}$

$x = 0.61$
