Answer:

c=4

Step-by-step explanation:

If polynomial p(x) is divisible by (x-3), then x=3 is zero of p(x).

p(x) =-x^3+cx^2-4x+3

0=p(3)=-3^3 +c*3^2 - 4*3+3

0=-27+9c-12+3

0=-27-9+9c

0=-36+9c

36=9c

c=36/9

c=4

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
