Just substitute 4 for x in the given equation:
h(4) = 3^4 - 7 = 81 - 7 = 74 (answer)
C. 17 r 1 is the correct answer
Answer:
-$13.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be a random variable of a count of player gain.
- We are told that if the die shows 3, the player wins $45.
- there is a charge of $9 to play the game
If he wins, he gains; 45 - 9 = $36
If he looses, he has a net gain which is a loss = -$9
Thus, the x-values are; (36, -9)
Probability of getting a 3 which is a win is P(X) = 1/6 since there are 6 numbers on the dice and probability of getting any other number is P(X) = 5/6
Thus;
E(X) = Σ(x•P(X)) = (1/6)(36) + (5/6)(-9)
E(X) = (1/6)(36 - (5 × 9))
E(X) = (1/6)(36 - 45)
E(X) = -9/6 = -3/2
E(X) = -3/2
This represents -3/2 of $9 = -(3/2) × 9 = - 27/2 = -$13.5
Answer:
486
Step-by-step explanation:
for the 2nd term, add 5 to -9
for the 3rd, add 5 × 2 to -9
for the 4th, add 5 × 3 to -9
:
for the 100th, add 5 × (100 - 1) to -9
=> 5 × 99 + (-9)
=> 486
