$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

a leaky faucet is losing water and is filling a 5-gallon bucket every 20 hours. At that rate, how many gallons of water will the
Arisa [49]
You can either scale down so you can get to 48 hours or just multiply from 20 to 48 and I'll explain both ways.
Scaling down:
You can find how many hours it takes to get to 1 gallon in the bucket by dividing
20÷5=4; It takes 4 hours to fill it up to one gallon.
You can now divide 48 by 4 to see how many gallons it'll take up to 48 hours.
48÷4=12
Quicker:
Divide 48 by 20;
48÷20=2.4
Now multiply since it filled it up to 5 gallons.
2.4×5=12
It'll fill 12 gallons in 48 hours.

How do I simplify this?
ololo11 [35]
Don't get too involved in the 'simplify' part just yet.
It doesn't mean make the problem easier.
It means that when you have the answer, make sure it's in simplest form.
That's why it says "Simplify your answer".
Notice that that's the 2nd instruction.
There's nothing to simplify until you have an answer.

The first thing you have to do here is find the area of a triangle.
Do you remember that formula ? 
I'll bet you do.
The area of a triangle is            (1/2) · (length of the base) · (height)  .

The height and the length of the base are given, right there
in the picture.  Take those, and use them to find the area.

Once you've multiplied the binomials, don't forget about the (1/2).

Finally, you have a trinomial for an answer.
Put the big sweet cherry on top:  Factor it !
I think that's the 'simplify' part.

You may be surprised.
I was when I worked it out just now ... just for you.

To the nearest tenth, which is the perimeter of ABC. Geometry
qwelly [4]

Answer:

23.6

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Finding AC:</em></u>

Cos 61 = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

0.48 × 10 = Adjacent

AC = 4.8

<u><em>Now, CB:</em></u>

Cos 29 = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

0.87 × 10 = CB

CB = 8.8

<u><em>The perimeter:</em></u>

=> 10+4.8+8.8

=> 23.6
