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.

Find the length of AB, given that DB is a median of the triangle and AC = 44.
pychu [463]

The length of the AB is 22 units if the length of AC is 44 units and DB is the median of the triangle.

<h3>What is the triangle?</h3>

The triangle can be defined as a three-sided polygon in geometry, and it consists of three vertices and three edges. The sum of all the angles inside the triangle is 180°.

The figure is missing.

The figure is attached to the picture, please refer to the picture.

We have a triangle shown in the picture.

As we know, the median bisects the side length into two equal parts.

AB = AC/2

AC = 44 units

AB = 44/2

AB = 22 units

Thus, the length of the AB is 22 units if the length of AC is 44 units and DB is the median of the triangle.

Given z1 = startroot 2 endroot (cosine (startfraction 3 pi over 4 endfraction) i sine (startfraction 3 pi over 4 endfraction) )
vampirchik [111]

The subtraction of complex numbers z_{1} -z_{2} is cos(π)+i sin(π).

Given z_{1} =\sqrt{2}[cos(3π/4+i sin(3π/4) and z_{2}=cos (π/2) +i sin(π/2)

We have to find the value of z_{1} -z_{2}.

A complex number is a number that includes real number as well as a imaginary unit in which i^{2} =1. It looks like a+ bi.

We have to first solve z_{1} and z_{2} and then we will be able to find the difference.

z_{1} =\sqrt{2}[ cos (3π/4)+i sin (3π/4)]

=\sqrt{2}[cos(π-π/4)+ i sin (π-π/4)]

=\sqrt{2} [-cos(π/4)+sin (π/4)]

=\sqrt{2}(-1/\sqrt{2}+1/\sqrt{2})

=\sqrt{2} *0

=0

z_{2} =cos(π/2)+i sin (π/2)

=0+i*1

=1

Now putting the values of z_{1}  and z_{2},

z_{1} -z_{2} =0-1

=-1

=-1+i*0

=cos (π)+i sin(π)

Hence the value of difference between z_{1} and z_{2} is cos(π)+i sin(π).
