So you have 55 guppies to begin with, then she gives away 28 so she now has 27 guppies. Since the number of tetra fish is 3 times the amount of guppies you can make this equation 3t=27 to find the number of tetra fish is, then once you solve it you get 9

A fair die is rolled 10 times. Find the expected value of:a) the sum of the numbers in the ten rolls;b) the number of multiples
velikii [3]

Answer:

a) 3.5

b) 3.33

c) 6 - 6\left(\begin{array}{ccc}5\\6\end{array}\right)^{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

As given,

A fair die is rolled 10 times

a)

Expected value of Sum of the number in 10 rolls = \frac{1}{6}(1+2+3+4+5+6) = \frac{21}{6}

                                                                                = 3.5

∴ we get

Expected value of Sum of the number in 10 rolls = 3.5

b)

Ley Y : number of multiples of 3

Y be Binomial

Y - B(n = 10, p = \frac{2}{6} )

Now,

Expected value = E(Y) = np = 10×\frac{2}{6}  = 3.33

c)

Let m = total number of faces in a die

⇒m = 6

As die is roll 10 times

⇒n = 10

Now,

Let Y = number of different faces appears

Now,

Expected value, E(Y) = m - m\left(\begin{array}{ccc}m-1\\m\end{array}\right)^{n}

                                  = 6 - 6\left(\begin{array}{ccc}6-1\\6\end{array}\right)^{10} = 6 - 6\left(\begin{array}{ccc}5\\6\end{array}\right)^{10}

Solve x²+5x+6=0 by completing the square​
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

x = -2

x= -3

Step-by-step explanation:

x 2+5x+6=0

To solve the equation, factor x^2+5x+6 using formula x^2+(a+b)x+ab=(x+a)(x+b). To find a and b, set up a system to be solved.

a+b=5

ab=6

Since ab is positive, a and b have the same sign. Since a+b is positive, a and b are both positive. List all such integer pairs that give product 6.

1,6

2,3

Calculate the sum for each pair.

1+6=7

2+3=5

The solution is the pair that gives sum 5.

a=2

b=3

Rewrite factored expression (x+a)(x+b) using the obtained values.

(x+2)(x+3)

To find equation solutions, solve x+2=0 and x+3=0.

x=−2

x=−3

Fred and Frank play a game. Fred picks an even number X and asks Frank to add all even numbers between 0 and X (inclusive) as fa
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The even numbers between 0 and X represents an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 2

The rule of arithmetic sequence = a + d(n - 1)

Where a is the first term and n is the number of terms

So, for the even numbers between 0 and X

The first term = a = 0

d = 2

So, we need to find n at the last term which is X

∴ X = 0 + 2 ( n -1 )

∴ n - 1 = X/2

∴ n = X/2 + 1

The sum of the arithmetic sequence = (n/2) × (2a + (n−1)d)

Substitute with a and d and X

So, the sum = (n/2) * (2*0 + (n−1)*2)

                   = (n/2) * ((n−1)*2)

                   = n(n-1)

                   = (X/2 + 1) * (X/2)

                   = X/2 by (X/2 + 1)

So, The quick way to add all even numbers between 0 and X always works.
