Answer:

57

Step-by-step explanation:

The player has a 1/4 chance of drawing any of the 4 prizes. This means that the probability of drawing a prize of $4 is 1/2 because there are 2 prizes worth of $4. The probability of drawing a prize of $20 is 1/4 and the probability of drawing a prize of $200 is also 1/4. To find the fair price of the game, we have to calculate the expected value that the player will gain. This can be obtained by multiplying any possible value of a price for the probability of drawing a prize of that value and adding all the obtained values togueter. Thus, the fair price of the game is

4 * \frac{1}{2} + 20 * \frac{1}{4} + 200 * \frac{1}{4} = 57

3x + 8 = 3x + []

Subtract 3x from both sides.

[] = 8

If you want no values of x, it can be any positive value other than 8.
If you want all values of x, the value must be 8.
If you want only one value of x, it is impossible because both equations have the same slope.

Slope is rise/run
so, you go up 4 times and run across 3 times, this is a positive slope, so the slope is
slope: 4/3
the y-intercept is the line that passes the y-axis, (0, -5),
y-intercept: -5

put it together
