A roulette wheel has the numbers 1 through 36, 0, and 00. A bet on five numbers pays 6 to 1 (that is, if one of the five numbers

you bet comes up, you get back your $1 plus another $6). How much do you expect to win with a $1 bet on five numbers? HINT [See Example 4.] (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)

Answer:

5 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

So the roulette wheel would have a total of 38 numbers, which means 38 different possible cases. Since you are allowed to bet on 5 numbers, the chance to win this is 5 out of 38 and to lose this is 33 out of 38.

If you win, you get 1 + 6 = 7 dollar, and if you lose, you lose 1 dollar.

Therefore the expected amount out of this game is:

E = 7\frac{5}{38} - 1\frac{33}{38} = \frac{35}{38} - \frac{33}{38} = \frac{2}{38} = \frac{1}{19} = \$0.0526

or 5 cents

the volume of a triangular prism is 42 cubic centimeters. what is the volume of a similar prism that is twice as large as large
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

The volume of the similar prism is 336\ cm^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its volumes is equal to the scale factor elevated to the cube

Let

z-----> the scale factor

x----> the volume of the larger prism

y----> the volume of the smaller prism

so

z^{3}=\frac{x}{y}

In this problem we have

z=2 -----> the scale factor

y=42\ cm^{3}

substitute and solve for x

x=42(2^{3})=336\ cm^{3}

What is a detailed example of simple interest?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Car loans, amortized monthly, and retailer installment loans, also calculated monthly, are examples of simple interest; as the loan balance dips with each monthly payment, so does the interest. Certificates of deposit (CDs) pay a specific amount in interest on a set date, representing simple interest

Please help, PLEASE will give brainlest answer
Korolek [52]

Answer:

SteAnswer:

y = 1/2x + 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the equation of the line

y - y_1 = m ( x - x_1)

First find the slope of the line

-2x + 4y = 8

It must be in this form

y = mx + C

4y = 8 + 2x

divide through by 4

4y/4 = 8 + 2x / 4

y = 8 + 2x/4

Let's separate

y = 8/4 + 2x/4

y = 2 + 1/2x

y = 1/2x + 2

Therefore, our slope or m is 1/2

Using the equation of the line

y - y_1 = m ( x - x_1)

With point (-5, -1)

x_1 = -5

y_1 = -1

y - (-1) = 1/2(x - (-5)

y + 1 = 1/2( x + 5)

Opening the brackets

y + 1 = x + 5 / 2

y = x + 5/2 - 1

Lcm is 2

y = x + 5 / 2 - 1/1

y = x + 5 -2/2

y = x +3/2

We can still separate it

y = x /2 + 3/2

y = 1/2x + 3/2

The equation of the line is

y = 1/2x + 3/2

The correct answer is A
