Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: +9
Discussion:
The opposite of a number is that number multiplied by -1. In our case the opposite number is (-1) * (- (abs(9))) = -1 * (-9) = +9
Thank you,
MrB
Answer:
The expected value of the safe bet equal $0
Step-by-step explanation:
If
is a finite numeric sample space and
for k=1, 2,..., n
is its probability distribution, then the expected value of the distribution is defined as
What is the expected value of the safe bet?
In the safe bet we have only two possible outcomes: head or tail. Woodrow wins $100 with head and “wins” $-100 with tail So the sample space of incomes in one bet is
S = {100,-100}
Since the coin is supposed to be fair,
P(X=100)=0.5
P(X=-100)=0.5
and the expected value is
E(X) = 100*0.5 - 100*0.5 = 0
Answer:
Here it is:
Step-by-step explanation:
Your grade point average (GPA) is calculated by dividing the total amount of grade points earned by the total amount of credit hours attempted. Your grade point average may range from 0.0 to a 4.0. To get the example student's GPA, the total grade points are divided by the total credit hours attempted.
Answer:
a = 195 ; c = 615
Step-by-step explanation:
So, you want to start by forming your equations...
I will use 'c' for children and 'a' for adults for my variables
3a + 30 = c
(this is because of the info that 30 more tickets than 3 times the amount of children's were sold than adult)
then for equation 2:
3c + 5a = 2820
(this is because of the prices of the tickets and the total money raised)
Then, plug in the equation for c
Your equation should look like:
3(3a + 30) + 5a = 2820
You get:
(9a +90) + 5a = 2820
Then:
14a = 2730
So:
a = 195 adult tickets sold
Plug in a, to find c:
3 (195) + 30 = c
585 + 30 = c
c = 615 children tickets sold
