Answer: - 0.28
Explanation:
1) Expected value: is the weighted average of the values, being the probabilities the weight.
That is: ∑ of prbability of event i × value of event i.
In this case: (probability of getting 2 or 12) × (+6) + (probability of gettin 3 or 11) × (+2) + (probability of any other sum) × (-1).
2) Sample space:
Sum Points awarded
1+ 1 = 2 +6
1 + 2 = 3 +2
1 + 3 = 4 -1
1 + 4 = 5 -1
1 + 5 = 6 -1
1 + 6 = 7 -1
2 + 1 = 3 +2
2 + 2 = 4 -1
2 + 3 = 5 -1
2 + 4 = 6 -1
2 + 5 = 7 -1
2 + 6 = 8 -1
3 + 1 = 4 -1
3 + 2 = 5 -1
3 + 3 = 6 -1
3 + 4 = 7 -1
3 + 5 = 8 -1
3 + 6 = 9 -1
4 + 1 = 5 -1
4 + 2 = 6 -1
4 + 3 = 7 -1
4 + 4 = 8 -1
4 + 5 = 9 -1
4 + 6 = 10 -1
5 + 1 = 6 -1
5 + 2 = 7 -1
5 + 3 = 8 -1
5 + 4 = 9 -1
5 + 5 = 10 -1
5 + 6 = 11 +2
6 + 1 = 7 -1
6 + 2 = 8 -1
6 + 3 = 9 -1
6 + 4 = 10 -1
6 + 5 = 11 +2
6 + 6 = 12 +6
2) Probabilities
From that, there is:
- 2/36 probabilities to earn + 6 points.
- 4/36 probabilites to earn + 2 points
- the rest, 30/36 probabilities to earn - 1 points
3) Expected value = (2/36)(+6) + (4/36) (+2) + (30/36) (-1) = - 0.28
Four significant is an answer
because if 0 is the extreme right of decimal place it is significant
and if 0 lies between two significant figure than it is significant like 1.020 is 4 sifnificant and 100 is 1 significant figure
Your answer is A Since Z is width and W is height
Answer:
<em>24 children</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
If the length of time, y hours, it takes to put a jigsaw puzzle together is inversely proportional to the number of children, x, this is represented as;
k is the constant of proportionality
If it takes 16 children 6 hours to put the jigsaw puzzle together, this means at x = 16, y = 6
Substitute:
6 = k/16
k = 6*16
k = 96
W are to find number of children needed to put the same jigsaw puzzle together in 4 hours, this is done by substituting k = 96 and y = 4 into the expression y = k/x
y = 96/4
y = 24
<em>Hence it will take 24 children to put the same jigsaw puzzle together in 4 hours</em>
<em></em>
69 is the correct answer
460 divided by 100 times 15 = 69
