I plan to have a food sale tomorrow on campus. If tomorrow is a sunny day, I plan to sale all of food and I can get an income of

$200. If tomorrow is a heavy raining day, then I cannot sale any food, so I do not have any income. Assume I need spend $50 to prepare the food and the chance of raining tomorrow is 0.01. find my expected value of this event.

Answer:

Expected value for the event = $148

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected value (EV) = Σ(Px*x)

Pr(rainy day) = 0.01

Px for rainy day = 0.01

Pr (sunny day) = 1-0.01 = 0.99

Px for sunny day = 0.99

If it's sunny, income = $200

Cost of preparation = $50

x for sunny day = 200-50 = 150

If it's rainy, income = $0

Cost of preparation = $50

x for sunny day = 0-50 = -50

EV =Σ(Px * x)

EV = (0.99*150)+(0.01*-50)

EV = 148.5+(-0.5) = 148.5-0.5

Expected value for the event = $148

Two drivers, Alison and Kevin, are participating in a drag race. Beginning from a standing start, they each proceed with a const
Vilka [71]

Answer:

Alison wins against Kevin by 0.93 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Alison covers the last 1/4 of the distance in 3 seconds, at a constant acceleration a_a, we have the following equation of motion

s/4 = a_at_a^2/2

where s (m) is the total distance, ta = 3 s is the time

s = 4a_a3^2/2 = 18a_a

a_a = s/18

Similarly, Kevin overs the last 1/3 of the distance in 4 seconds, at a constant acceleration a_k, we have the following equation of motion:

s/3 = a_kt_k^2/2

tk = 4 s is the time

s = 3a_k4^2/2 = 24a_k

a_k = s/24

Since a_a = s/18 we can conclude that a_a > a_k, so Alison would win.

The time it takes for Alison to cover the entire track

s = a_aT_a^2/2

T_a^2 = 2s/a_a = 2s/(s/18) = 36

T_a = \sqrt{36} = 6 s

The time it takes for Kevin to cover the entire track

s = a_kT_k^2/2

T_k^2 = 2s/a_k = 2s/(s/24) = 48

T_a = \sqrt{48} = 6.93 s

So Alison wins against Kevin by 6.93 - 6 = 0.93 s

Can anybody help me with this question?

For number 16 we need to write the data as a ratio then convert to a unit rate (amount per 1)...

308/14 = x/1

Cross multiply

14x = 308
x = 308/14
x = 22

So the fuel efficiency is
22 miles per 1 gallon or

22/1

For number 17, since the car was driven at 48 mph, we just have to divide distance driven by speed to get how long it took...

288 miles ÷ 48 mph =

6 hours
