Answer:
Number of small candles = 12
Number of large candles = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Total candles = 28
x + y = 28 ---------------(I)
Cost of 'x' small candles = 4 *x = 4x
Cost of 'y' large candles = 6 *y = 6y
Total amount = $144
4x + 6y = 144 -------------(II)
Multiply equation (I) by (-4) and then add the equation. So, x will be eliminated and we can find the value of 'y'
(I) * (-4) -4x - 4y = -112
(II) <u> 4x + 6y = 144</u> {Now, add}
2y = 32
y = 32/2
y = 16
Plug in y = 16 in equation (I)
x + 16 = 28
x = 28 - 16
x = 12
Answer:
5 cents
Step-by-step explanation:
So the roulette wheel would have a total of 38 numbers, which means 38 different possible cases. Since you are allowed to bet on 5 numbers, the chance to win this is 5 out of 38 and to lose this is 33 out of 38.
If you win, you get 1 + 6 = 7 dollar, and if you lose, you lose 1 dollar.
Therefore the expected amount out of this game is:

or 5 cents
