Ivanna is playing a game in which she spins a spinner with 6 equal-sized slices numbered 1 through 6. The spinner stops on a num

bered slice at random.
This game is this: Ivanna spins the spinner once. She wins $1 if the spinner stops on the number 1, $3 if the spinner stops on the number 2, $5 if the spinner stops on the number 3, and $7 if the spinner stops on the number 4. She loses $8 if the spinner stops on 5 or 6.

Answer:

The spinner has 6 equal-sized slices, so each slice has a 1/6 probability of showing up.

I guess that we want to find the expected value in one spin:

number 1: wins $1

number 2: wins $3

number 3: wins $5

number 4: wins $7

number 5: losses $8

number 6: loses $8

The expected value can be calculated as:

Ev = ∑xₙpₙ

where xₙ is the event and pₙ is the probability.

We know that the probability for all the events is 1/6, so we have:

Ev = ($1 + $3 + $5 + $7 - $8 - $8)*(1/6) = $0

So the expected value of this game is $0, wich implies that is a fair game.

Solve for the value of X pleassee
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

188

Step-by-step explanation:

SR and ST are equal in length so the arc SR and arc ST also have same measurement

since the perimeter of the circle is equal to 360 and arc RT is given as 64

x = (360 - 64) / 2

x = 188

the pta is ordering pizza for their next meeting. they plan to order 2 cheese pizzas for every 3 pepperoni pizzas they order. ho
vova2212 [387]
10 cheese pizzas

use  simple ratio, 3:2 (3 pepperoni for every 2 cheese)
to make the ratio bigger, we substitute the "3" pepperoni for "15" pepperoni. then take the new amount, 15/3 original, you get 5. then multiply the 2 original cheese pizzas by that 5, and you get 10 cheese pizza's. 

hope that helps
