Answer:

C) The expected value is -$2000, so the detective should not take the job.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value is the sum of products of income and probability:

E = -10,000·1.00 + 80,000·0.10 = -10,000 +8,000 = -2,000

The detective can be expected to lose money on the job, so should not take it.

What is 2,001÷83 pls help i need to check my answer
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

24.11

Step-by-step explanation:

2001 ÷ 83

83×2= 166

200-166=34 bring down the 1

341 ÷ 83

83×4= 332

341-332=9 add a decimal and bring down a 0

90÷83

90-83=7 bring down another 0

70÷83=0 brind down another 0 since 70 cannot be divided by 83 and have a whole number

700÷83

83×8=664

700-664=36

right now you have 24.108

round to the nearest tenth
