  • Answer:

<em>l = 16 feet</em>

<em>w = 3 feet</em>

  • Step-by-step explanation:

<em>A = l×w</em>

<em>l = 10+2w</em>

<em>48 = (10 + 2w)w</em>

<em>48 = 10w + 2w² | : 2</em>

<em>24 = 5w + w²</em>

<em>w² + 5w - 24 = 0</em>

<em>w² + 8w - 3w - 24 = 0</em>

<em>w(w + 8) - 3(w + 8) = 0</em>

<em>(w - 3)(w + 8) = 0</em>

<em>w - 3 = 0 => w = 3 feet</em>

<em>w + 8 = 0 => w = - 8 ∉ N </em>

<em>l = 10 + 2w</em>

<em>l = 10 + 6</em>

<em>l = 16 feet</em>

<em />

<em>A = l×w = 16ft×3ft = 48ft² </em>

You and a friend play a game where you each toss a balanced coin. If the upper faces on the coins are both tails, you win $1; if
dsp73

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that you and a friend play a game where you each toss a balanced coin.

If the upper faces on the coins are both tails, you win $1;

if the faces are both heads, you win $2;

if the coins do not match (one shows a head, the other a tail), you lose $1 (win (−$1)).

Let Y be the amount won

Then Y can take values as 1,2 and -1

P(Y=1) =P(TT) = 0.25\\P(Y=2) = P(HH) = 0.25\\P(Y=-1) = P(HT)+P(TH) = 0.5

The above is the probability distribution for Y.

⇔ -56x + 49 = -12 + 5x
⇔ -61x = -61
⇔ x = 1
