Answer:

–0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected value is found by multiplying the probabilities of each roll by the amount won or lost with each roll.

The odd rolls are 1, 3 and 5.  The probability of rolling a 1 is 1/6, and the value is 1; this gives us 1/6(1) = 1/6.

The probability of rolling a 3 is 1/6, and the value is 3; this gives us 1/6(3) = 3/6.

The probability of rolling a 5 is 1/6, and the value is 5; this gives us 1/6(5) = 5/6.

Rolling any even number gives us the same value.  The probability of rolling an odd number is 3/6, and the value is -4; this gives us 3/6(-4) = -12/6.

Together we have

1/6+3/6+5/6-12/6 = 4/6+5/6-12/6 = 9/6-12/6 = -3/6 = -0.5

anzhelika [568]

Answer: Jason paid $33 for the jacket

Step-by-step explanation: 50% of 88 is 44. Because it’s percent off we subtract. 88-44=44. That’s the discount price. Now we discount the discounted price. Remember that this is NOT a 75% discount, it’s two separate discounts. 25% of 44 is 11. 44-11=33. The final price is $33.

Line segment C X is an altitude in triangle ABC. Triangle A B C is shown. Angle A C B is a right angle. An altitude is drawn fro
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

i. ΔAXC ~ ΔCXB

ii. ΔBCX Is-congruent-to ΔACX

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given ΔABC, CX is the altitude of ΔABC; and also an angle bisector of <ACB.

So that:

m<AXC = m<BXC (right angle property)

m<ACX = m<BCX (congruent property)

m<ACX + m<AXC + m<CAX = 180^{o} (sum of angles in a triangle)

m<BCX + m<BXC + m<CBX = 180^{o} (sum of angles in a triangle)

Therefore, from the figure it can be deduced that;

i. ΔAXC ~ ΔCXB (Angle-Angle-Side, AAS, property)

ii. ΔBCX Is-congruent-to ΔACX (Angle-Angle-Side, AAS, property)
