Answer:

w =4 ft and l =10 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w = width

l = 2w+2

A = l*w

A = (2w+2)(w)

 40  = (2w+2) w

Distribute

40 = 2w^2 +2w

Subtract 40

0 = 2w^2 +2w - 40

Dividing each side by 2

0 = w^2 +w -20

Factor

0 = (w+5) (w-4)

Using the zero product property

w+5 =0     w-4=0

w= -5  w=4

Since we cant have a negative length

w=4

l = 2w+2 = 2(4)+2 = 8+2 =10

A roulette wheel has the numbers 1 through 36, 0, and 00. A bet on five numbers pays 6 to 1 (that is, if one of the five numbers
tatiyna

Answer:

5 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

So the roulette wheel would have a total of 38 numbers, which means 38 different possible cases. Since you are allowed to bet on 5 numbers, the chance to win this is 5 out of 38 and to lose this is 33 out of 38.

If you win, you get 1 + 6 = 7 dollar, and if you lose, you lose 1 dollar.

Therefore the expected amount out of this game is:

E = 7\frac{5}{38} - 1\frac{33}{38} = \frac{35}{38} - \frac{33}{38} = \frac{2}{38} = \frac{1}{19} = \$0.0526

or 5 cents
