Answer:

The carnival is losing (on average) $0.15 on each play

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how much the carnival wins or looses in each play one subtract the expected value (EV) from each play from the amount charged by the carnival for each play ($0.55). If the expected value is higher than what the carnival charges, the carnival is losing money.

Expected is the sum of the payouts of each bet multiplied by its likelihood:

EV= \frac{64*0.40+25*1.15+1*9.00}{90}\\EV= 0.70

Since the expected value is higher than $0.55, the carnival is losing money, on average, on each play:

0.55-0.7 = -0.15

The carnival is losing (on average) $0.15 on each play

Trigonometry question! find the vaule of x. round to the nearest tenth!​
atroni [7]

Answer:

<h2>x = 88.2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

Use tangent:

tangent=\dfrac{opposite}{adjacent}

We have a measure of the angle and length of the adjacent:

\alpha=10^o,\ adjacent=500

\tan10^o\approx0.17633

Substitute:

\dfrac{x}{500}=0.17633             <em>multiply both sides by 500</em>

x=88.165\to x=88.2
