To solve this problem we need to find arithmetic mean of the given prize values.
To find arithmetic mean of any series of numbers you simply add them all together and then divide them by the number of numbers in the series.
We can express this by following formula:
A= \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n} a_{i}
Where a_{i} represents value of each number in the series.
In this problem, we have 10000 numbers. Most of them are zero because most tickets don't win anything.
We just add the value of all prizes and divide them by the number of tickets.
A= \frac{9000+2000+1000}{10000} =1.20
The answer is C. Your expected payoff is $1.2.

19. Find the value of:<br>4/3tan^2 30° + Sin^2 60° – 3Cos^2 30°+ 3tan^2. 60° - 2tan^2 45°​
Julli [10]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  107/18

Step-by-step explanation:

Your calculator and/or knowledge of trig function values can help you evaluate this.

  = 4/3(1/3) +3/4 -3(3/4) +3(3) -2(1)

  = 4/9 +3/4 -9/4 +9 -2

  = 107/18

___

tan(30°) = 1/√3

tan(45°) = 1

tan(60°) = √3

sin(60°) = cos(30°) = √3/2

Liza opens a new savings account. Assuming she deposits $15 every week, which equation represents the balance, y, of the savings
fiasKO [112]
B. “Y = 15x” would be your answer. Y is your end balance and x is the weeks. For example, if x is 3 weeks, your equation would be 45 = 15*3. In this case, y would be 45. Need anymore help?
