Answer:

 $900

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin with let us estimate the total cash value of the prices

$1000 x 1= 1000

$500 x 1=  500

$50 x 2= 100

Total = $1600

Now let us calculate the total cost of tickets sold at $2.50 per tickets for 1000 tickets

2.5*1000= $2,500

Assuming worse case that the lottery had winners in all three categories and i.e the total prices given out is $1600

Then the expected profit is = $2,500-$1600= $900

A parallelogram has a base of length 2x + 1 and a height of x + 3 and has an area of
storchak [24]

Answer:

  • base 7
  • height 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the given expressions, we can write the area as ...

  A = BH

  42 = (2x +1)(x +3) = 2x^2 +7x +3

  2x ^2 +7x -39 = 0

  (x -3)(2x +13) = 0

  x = 3   or   -6.5  . . . . .  these values make the factors be zero

In order for the parallelogram to have positive dimensions, the value of x must be 3. So, the base and height are ...

  base = 2(3) +1 = 7

  height = 3 +3 = 6
