Answer:

The expected number of cards is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that,

'Expected value = Total number of trials × Probability of each trial'

Let C is the event of correct cards and C' is the event of incorrect cards.

Given,

Total number of cards = 12

Also, the correctness of the card is 9 times out of 12,

Thus, the number of correct cards,

n(C) = 9,

⇒ The number of incorrect cards,

n(C') = 12 - 9 = 3

Also, A card can be can be correct or incorrect,

Thus, The probability of correct card,

P(C)=\frac{1}{2}

And, the probability of incorrect card,

P(C')=\frac{1}{2}

Thus, the expected number of cards = expected number of correct card + expected number of incorrect card

= n(C) × P(C) + n(C') × P(C')

=9\times \frac{1}{2}+3\times \frac{1}{2}

=\frac{9}{2}+\frac{3}{2}

=\frac{12}{2}=6

Nataly [62]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 8x from both sides.

3x+4−8x=8x−11−8x

−5x+4=−11

Subtract 4 from both sides.

−5x+4−4=−11−4

−5x=−15

Divide both sides by -5.
