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.

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4) x² - 14x + 48

We would find two numbers such that their sum or difference is -14x and their product is 48x².

The two numbers are - 6x and - 8x. Therefore,

x² - 6x - 8x + 48

x(x - 6) - 8(x - 6)

(x - 8)(x - 6)

5) 2x² + 21x - 11

We would find two numbers such that their sum or difference is 21x and their product is - 22x².

The two numbers are 22x and - x. Therefore,

2x² + 22x - x - 11

2x(x + 11) - 1(x + 11)

(2x - 1)(x + 11)

6) 5a² - 125

5 is a common factor. So we would factorize 5. It becomes

5(a² - 25)

Simplifying further, it becomes

5(a + 5)(a - 5)

Math help please, thank you!

The answer to the first question of the attached document is option 1. We obtain the answer subtracting the term n from the series with the term n-1.For example:
 -3 - (- 5) = 2
 -1 - (- 3) = 2
  1 - (- 1) = 2
 So you can see that the common difference is the 2.

 The answer to the second question is option 3:
 y = | x + 7 |
 We can confirm it by substituting values in the equation.
 For example:
 if we do y = 0 then x = -7
 if we do x = 0 then y = 7.
 As corresponds in the graph shown.
 Remember also that as a general rule yes to the equationy = | x | whose vertex is in the point (0,0) we add a positive real number "a" of form y = | x + a | then the graph of y = | x | will move "to" units in the negative direction of x.

 The answer to the third question is option 4.
 The quotient of x and "and" is constant.
 k = y / x
 Rewriting:
 y = kx
 You can see that it corresponds to the equation of a line that passes through the origin, this means that and is proportional to x and both vary directly
