Answer:

(C). (Probability of state A*Value in state A)+(Probability of state B*Value in state B)

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value of a probability distribution, E(X) is defined as:

$E(x)=\sum_{i=1} ^{k} x_{i} \cdot P(x_{i})\\$Where x=An Outcome\\P(x)=Probability of that Outcome$

Given Outcome A and B, the Expected Value therefore is:

Expected Value = (Probability of state A*Value in state A)+(Probability of state B*Value in state B)

Complete the given operation and write the expression in standard form.

Elodia [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

Using synthetic division of polynomials 3x⁴-2x²+4x+9÷x+2. Rewrite the dividend as 3x⁴+0x³-2x²+4x+9

2 | 3 0 -2 4 9

| 6 -12 20 -32

3 -6 10 -16 41

So the quotient is 3x³-6x²+10x-16 with a remainder of 41

Therefore, 3x³-6x²+10x-16+(41/x+2)

A chain has a ribbon tied to it every 2/3 foot. If the chain is 10 2/3 feet long, how many ribbons are tied to the chain??

patriot [66]

Answer:

16 ribbons

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the length of the chain as 10 $\frac{2}{3}$ and there is a ribbon tied to it every $\frac{2}{3}$ , we can take the total length of the chain and divide by the measure of $\frac{2}{3}$ :

$10\frac{2}{3}=\frac{32}{3}$

$\frac{\frac{32}{3}}{\frac{2}{3}}=\frac{32}{3}*\frac{3}{2}=\frac{96}{6}=16$

When dividing with fractions, we use the rule of 'keep/change/flip' to keep the first fractions, change the operation to multiplication and flip the second fraction.
