Answer:

The actual dimensions of the closet are 2 ft by 3 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the scale, 1/4 inch <--> 1 foot

The closet dimensions on the scale are (1/2 inch, 3/4) or (2/4 inch, 3/4). Let the real closet dimensions be (x,y).

In this case, the rule of three can be applied to find the missing term of a proportion:

x*\frac{1}{4} = 1*\frac{2}{4}\\x=2\\y*\frac{1}{4} = 1*\frac{3}{4}\\y=3

The actual dimensions of the closet are 2 ft by 3 ft.

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

The carnival is losing (on average) $0.15 on each play

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how much the carnival wins or looses in each play one subtract the expected value (EV) from each play from the amount charged by the carnival for each play ($0.55). If the expected value is higher than what the carnival charges, the carnival is losing money.

Expected is the sum of the payouts of each bet multiplied by its likelihood:

EV= \frac{64*0.40+25*1.15+1*9.00}{90}\\EV= 0.70

Since the expected value is higher than $0.55, the carnival is losing money, on average, on each play:

0.55-0.7 = -0.15

The carnival is losing (on average) $0.15 on each play
