That expression is the expected value of your winnings, or "the average amount you will win (or lose) per game in the long run".

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a game has 3 possible outcomes, with probabilities p1, p2, and p3

The amount win or lose for each outcome is v1, v2, and v3, respectively.

If X is the amount of win or lose then x has the following prob distribution

X      v_1       v_2      v_3\\Pr.    p_1       p_2     p_3\\

Hence Expected value of x = average of x

=p1v1 + p2v2 + p3v3

Thus answer is

Option b) The average amount you will win (or lose) per game in the long run.

(b) Paul uses the function y = 8x + 40 to model the situation. What score does the model predict for 3 h of homework? WILL MARK
Bess [88]
Assuming that x is the amount of hours spent doing homework:

Plug in 3 for x

y = 8(3)+40, y=64

That means that since a y value is the test score (because that's what the y-axis is labeled), your predicted test score is a 64.

A pyramid with a slant height 4.6 in whose triangular base measures 8 in on each side.Each altitude of the base measures of 6.9
kvasek [131]

Answer:

82.8 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area a triangular based pyramid :

Base area + 1/2(perimeter * slant height)

Base = 8 inches ; Slant height = 4.6 inches ; altitude of base measure = 6.9 inches

Base area of triangle :

1/2 * base * height

1/2 * 8 * 6.9

4 * 6.9

Base area = 27.6 in²

The perimeter, P = sum of sides ; (s1 + s2 + s3

P = 8 + 8 + 8 = 24 in

Hence,

Surface area = 27.6 in² + 1/2(24*4.6)

Surface area = 27.6 in² + (12 * 4.6) in²

Surface area = (27.6 + 55.2)

Surface area = 82.8 in²

Drag each value to the correct location on the equation. Each value can be used more than once, but not all values will be used.
MArishka [77]

Answer:

-303.11 -175

Step-by-step explanation:

The jet has a speed of magnitude 350 miles/hour and travelling in a direction of 210°. Hence the jet can be represented with |r| = 350, θ = 210°.

The component form of the vector has both the x component (horizontal component) and the y component (vertical component) Therefore:

The horizontal component = r_x=|r|cos\theta=350*cos(210^o)= -303.11

The vertical component = r_y=|r|sin\theta=350*sin(210^o)= -175
