To find the answer to this problem, you just need to figure out which total amount of candy is divisible by 7.
161/7=23
<span>162/7=23.1428571429
</span>145/7=<span>20.7142857143
128/7=</span><span>18.2857142857
Obviously, Julie cannot give a fraction of an amount of candy to someone. So that rules out that she had 162, 145, or 128 pieces of candy.
The only amount of candies that Julie could have that is divisible by 7 is 161 candies, which means that 161 is your answer.</span>
Expected value of the bet is
the sum of the products of value of outcome and its probability,
less the amount paid to place the bet.
Outcomes value probability
win 225 1/4
lose 0 3/4
cost of bet = 40
So expected value of bet
E[X]=225*(1/4)+0*(3/4)-40
=56.25-40
=16.25
This means that in the long run, gambler will win, since the expected value is positive. (does NOT mean she will win in the next bet!)
Answer:
He made 7 3-point shots.
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=19
2x+3y=45
y=19-x
2x+3*(19-x)=45
2x+57-3x=45
-x=45-57
-x=-12
x=12
y=19-12
y =7
Ik this is late, but people who are looking for the answer can see this.
Answer:
an =1/3*6^n-1
Step-by-step explanation:
You should plug in 2 for n in each equation, which, the correct one should give you 2. Then, to make sure, you plug in 3 in the equations that gave you 2.
Example:
an = 1/3 * 6 ^n-1
Plug in 2.
an = 1/3 * 6 ^2-1
an = 1/3 * 6 ^1
1/3 * 6 = 2
Step 2.
an = 1/3 * 6 ^3-1
an = 1/3 * 6 ^2
1/3 * 36 = 12
Hope this helps.
