Equation:

(28     -     4) / 2    =     p

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

28     -   4/2     =    p

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

12         =       p

Step 2: Flip the equation.

p          =      12

Answer:       =======>    p       =       12 Pounds of potting soil Emmanuel would have gotten last week



When Graph:

28   -   4/2    =    p

Intersection Points ======>     (12,     12 )






Hope that helps!!!!                                     : )

If you draw a card with a value of 4 or less from a standard deck of cards, I will pay you 165$ if not your pay me $45. (Aces ar
jekas [21]

Answer: The required expected value is $3.46.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of value of 4 or less are

2,3,4

So, there are 12 in numbers.

So, probability would be

\dfrac{12}{52}

Since Aces are considered as the highest card in the deck.

So, remaining probability would be

\dfrac{40}{12}

Amount paid or value of 4 or less = $165

Amount not paid for other case = $45

So, the expected value would be

\dfrac{12}{52}\times 165-\dfrac{40}{52}\times 45\\\\=\dfrac{1980}{52}-\dfrac{1800}{52}\\\\=\dfrac{180}{52}\\\\=3.46

Hence, the required expected value is $3.46.
