4) You are in Las Vegas and need $35 to buy a great steak dinner, but you only have $20. You decide to play roulette to win the

money you need for your dinner. In the simplest bet in roulette, you bet $1 on one of 38 numbers and if your number comes up on the wheel you win $35. If any other number comes up, you lose. a) If you bet $1 on each of 20 different numbers on one single spin of the wheel, what is the probability that you will have $35 after your bet?

Answer:

The probability that you will have $35 after your bet is 0.5263

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

If you bet $1 on each of 20 different numbers on one single spin of the wheel, what is the probability that you will have $35 after your bet.

If you bet $1 on a single number then the probability of winning is:

\frac{1}{38}

But if you bet $1 on each of 20 different number then the probability increases.

Thus the required probability is: \frac{20}{38}\approx0.5263

Hence, the probability that you will have $35 after your bet is 0.5263

Solve 240 = 6z + c for 'c'.<br><br> show steps please
Lunna [17]

There are two ways to find or determine for the value of c. In the first method, we can use addition and subtraction to isolate the variable c from the other variables. In the second method, we can use the transposition of variables to isolate the variable c from the other variables.

So solving for the value of c:

 

<span>Using 1st method: Addition and Subtraction</span>

We are given:

240 = 6 z + c

Simply subtract 6 z on both sides:

240 – 6 z = 6 z + c – 6 z

Cancelling 6 z – 6 z on the right side:

240 – 6 z = c

or

c = 240 – 6 z

 

<span>Using the 2nd method: Transposition</span>

240 = 6 z + c

What we are going to do here is to simply transpose the variable 6 z from the right side to the left side of the equation so that we are left with c alone on the right side. Always remember that when we transpose, the symbol becomes opposite. That is:

240 + (- 6 z) = c

240 – 6 z = c

or

<span>c = 240 – 6 z</span>

disa [49]
(4*1000) + (2*100) + (3*1/10) = <span>4200.3
</span>(4x1000) + (2x100) + (3x1/10) = <span>4200.3
</span>
Both are equal.

The diagram below shows a proportional relationship between the number of cans of soup and the price.
1st:
$3.75 for 3 cans
per can
2nd:
$6.25 for 5 cans
per can
If x is the number of cans and y is the price of x cans, then

This means the constant of proportionality is 1.25 and its meaning is the soup price per can
