In a particular game, a spinner with four equally-sized sectors labeled 1, 4, 6, and 8 is spun twice. One turn is considered 2 s

pins of the spinner.
If the sum of the spins is even, you move forward 6 spaces. Otherwise, you move back 2 spaces.

What is the mathematical expectation for the number of spaces moved in one turn?



A. 3 spaces forward
B. 3 spaces backward
C. 1 space backward
D. 1 space forward

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The mathematical expectation for the number of spaces moved in one turn is:

           A.    3 spaces forward.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Th result or the sample space on spinning a spinner twice is:

           (1,1)    (1,4)    (1,6)    (1,8)

           (4,1)   (4,4)    (4,6)  (4,8)

           (6,1)   (6,4)    (6,6)  (6,8)

           (8,1)   (8,4)    (8,6)   (8,8)

Total number of outcomes= 16

The number of outcomes whose sum is even= 10

( Since the outcomes are: {(1,1) , (4,4) , (4,6) , (4,8) , (6,4) , (6,6) , (6,8) , (8,4) , (8,6) , (8,8)}  )

The number of outcomes whose sum is odd= 6

( Since, the outcomes are: { (1,4) , (1,6) , (1,8) , (4,1) , (6,1) , (8,1) }

Probability(sum even)=10/16

Probability(sum odd)=6/16

Hence, the expectation is:

 E(X)=\dfrac{10}{16}\times (+6)+\dfrac{6}{16}\times (-2)\\\\\\E(X)=\dfrac{60-12}{16}\\\\\\E(X)=\dfrac{48}{16}\\\\\\E(X)=+3

                 Hence, the answer is:

              A.  3 spaces forward.

9 is 3% of what number? Which proportion matches this information?
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

3% = 3/100

So we can eliminate the first answer.

The proportions have to match each other so the number nine should be above and thus the x has only the option of being under it.

As a result, we eliminate the third answer and remain with one reasonable answer

If 0° ≤ θ ≤ 90° and cosθ = 11/15 , what is the value of sin (90° - θ)?
igor_vitrenko [27]
11/15=0.7333
cos^{-1}(0.7333) =42.83342
sin(90-47.166572) = 0.7333

first, find the numeric value for 11/15
second to find theta, simply do the <em>inverse</em> cos (which is cos^-1) of the first answer.
now you know theta, just do the sin of 90 - theta and that's it!

since you know whatr cos(theta) is, you just take the inverse cos of that number to get theta and 'reverse' cos, essentially. you are just solving for theta, by reversing the cos function with cos^-1

Find the length of X in simplest radical form with a rational denominator
Darya [45]

Answer:

x = \sqrt 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached triangle

Required

Find x

Considering angle 30 degrees,

Opposite = \sqrt{2

Adjacent = x

Using the tangent formula:

tan\ 30 = \frac{\sqrt 2}{x}

Make x the subject

x = \frac{\sqrt 2}{tan\ 30}

x = \frac{\sqrt 2}{1/\sqrt 3}

x = \sqrt 2 * \sqrt 3

x = \sqrt 6
