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.

What is the percent of change if the price changes from $150 to $100? Round to the nearest whole percent if necessary.
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Percentual change= 33.33% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Present value (PV)= $150

Future value (FV)= $100

<u>To calculate the percentual change, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Percentual change= [(PV - FV) / PV]*100

Percentual change= [(150 - 100) / 150]*1''

Percentual change= 0.3333*100

Percentual change= 33.33% decrease

It is expected that 563 quadrillion thermal units of Btu (British thermal units) of energy will be
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

the expected rate of change in consumption is 11.83

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the expected rate of change in consumption is shown below:

= (Expected quadrillion thermal units - 2003 quadrillion thermal units) ÷ (difference in years)

= (563 - 421) ÷ (2015 - 2003)

= 142 ÷ 12

= 11.83

hence, the expected rate of change in consumption is 11.83

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

And, the same is to be considered

Barbara, Mark, and Carlos participated in the third heat of “The Big Race”. Barbara thought she could win with a 3 meter head st
steposvetlana [31]
Distance to travel = 20 m.
Let us determine the time, t, that each participant took to complete 20 m.

Barbara:
Average speed = (3 m)/(2 s) = 1.5 m/s
t = 20/1.5 = 13.3 s

Mark:
t =  5 s

Carlos:
y = x + 1
where
y = 20 m
x = time, t
Therefore
t =x = y - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19 s

Summary:
Barbara:  13.3 s
Mark:       5 s
Carlos:     19 s

Answer:
The winner is Mark
