5 0

Answer:

$0.0646 is the expected value of the draw.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 nickel = 5 cents

1 dime = 10 cents

1 penny = 1 cent

Total number of coins = 14+15+6=35

Probability that a nickel is selected is = 14/35

Probability that a dime is selected is = 15/35

Probability that a penny is selected is = 6/35

So, the expected value of the draw will be =

\frac{14}{35}*5+\frac{15}{35}*10+\frac{6}{35}*1

\frac{70}{35}+\frac{150}{35}+\frac{6}{35}=\frac{226}{35}

= 6.457 cents ≈6.46 cents

So, in dollars it is = \frac{6.46}{100} = $0.0646

So, $0.0646 is the expected value of the draw.

The measures of two angles of a triangle are 61 and 84 degrees. Find the measure of the third angle.
Serhud [2]

Answer:

The measure of the third angle is 35°.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the three angles of a triangle is always 180°.

Let the measure of the third angle be x.

∴ 61° + 84° + x = 180°

           145 + x =180°

                    x = 180 - 145

                    x = 35°
