Answer:

A) Gamblers lose a relatively small amount most of the time but there are a few large pay-outs

B) if person play 5 times, the mean of the casino's profit is $0.04

if person play 5 times, the standard deviation of the casino's profit i$268.33

C) If gamblers play this machine 1000 times in a​ day, the mean is $80

If gamblers play this machine 1000 times in a​ day, the standard deviation is   $3794.3

D) Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

From the details given , it is observed that a casino knows that people play the soft machines in hopes of hitting the jackpot but most of them lose their dollars

There is a certain machine that pays out an average of $0.92 with standard deviation of $120

A) The standard deviation is so large because, Gamblers lose a relatively small amount most of the time but there are a few large pay-outs

B) if person play 5 times, the mean of the casino's profit is

E(x) = ( 1 - $0.92) x 5

     = $0.04

if person play 5 times, the standard deviation of the casino's profit is

S(3x) = √120² x 5

      = $268.33

C) If gamblers play this machine 1000 times in a​ day, the mean is

E(x) = ( 1 - $0.92) x 1000

     = $80

If gamblers play this machine 1000 times in a​ day, the standard deviation is

S(x) = √120² x 1000

      = $3794.3

D) The casino is likely to be profitable due to the average pays out winning jackpot in slot machines occur very less in $0.29, so more people play winning jackpot in slot machines in casino, the casino will become more profitable.

2x-7=117 what is the value of x
Tcecarenko [31]

2x - 7 = 117

Add 7 to both sides

7 + 2x - 7 = 117 + 7

At the left hand side 7 will cancel 7

At the right hand side 7 will add up

2x = 124

Divide through by 2

x =  \frac{124}{2}

simplify the fraction

x = 62

Can someone help me with this math homework please!
maxonik [38]

Here, we may use Geometric Progression

The sequence follows as:

27, 18,12,...

The first term (a)= 27

27/18 = 18/12

common ratio = 1.5

Let fourth term be x

Therefore , 12/x = 1.5

=> x= 12/1.5 = 8
