How many blank pages remain

B) 14.

If you start with subtracting the 8 pages from 50, you get 42 remaining pages. Then it says 2/3 of the REMAINING pages so you divide 42 into thirds. 42/3=14. You want 2/3 of that, so you multiply the 14 by two to get 28 (it's like there are three piles of 14 pages and you want only 2 out of the three piles). So now you've used 28 pages + the original 8. You've used a TOTAL of 36 pages. Subtract 36 from 50 and you get 14 left.

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

The expected value of this game is -$0.26.

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected value:

Each possible earning/loss multiplied by it's probability.

Probability:

Number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this question, the order in which the numbers are chosen is not important. So we use the combinations formula to solve.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

Probability of winning:

Desired outcomes:

The 6 correct numbers, so $D = 6$

Total outcomes:

6 numbers from a set of 21. So

$T = C_{21,6} = \frac{21!}{6!15!} = 54264$

Probability:

$p = \frac{1}{54265}$

Expected value

$\frac{1}{54265}$ probability of earning 40,000.

$\frac{54264}{54265}$ probability of losing 1. So

$E = \frac{40,000}{54265} - \frac{54264}{54265} = -0.26$

The expected value of this game is -$0.26.

What is the slope of the line shown in the graph? (4 points)

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

a. or $\frac{3}{-2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is equal to y1-y2 over x1-x2.

So the equation would be:

$\frac{2-(-1)}{-3-(-1)}$

2-(-1)=2+1=3

-3-(-1)=-3+1=-2

So the answer is:

$\frac{3}{-2}$

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

If you are doing subtraction with fractions you need to make a common denominator and subtract the numerators from each other

ex. 1/2 - 1/3

make a common denominator (or find the least common multiple)

3/6 - 2/6

subtract the numerators

take 2 from 3 and put that on top.

Solution 1/2-1/3= 3/6-2/6= 1/6
