Two number cubes are rolled to determine how a token moves on a game board. The sides of each number cube are numbered 1, 2, 3,

4, 5 and 6.
There are two options describing how the token will be moved.

Option A: If the product is even, move forward 4 spaces. Otherwise, move backward 3.

Option B: If the product is even, move forward 5 spaces. Otherwise, move backward 4.
Use mathematical expectation to determine which option offers the greater likelihood of moving closer to the finish line on the game board.

Which statement best explains the better option?


The mathematical expectation of Option A is 2.75. The mathematical expectation of Option B is 2.25. Option A offers a greater likelihood of advancing to the finish line.

The mathematical expectation of Option A is 2.75. The mathematical expectation of Option B is 2.25. Option B offers a greater likelihood of advancing to the finish line.

The mathematical expectation of Option A is 2.25. The mathematical expectation of Option B is 2.75. Option B offers a greater likelihood of advancing to the finish line.

The mathematical expectation of Option A is 2.25. The mathematical expectation of Option B is 2.75. Option A offers a greater likelihood of advancing to the finish line.

Answer:

10.8\ yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-------> amount of yards of fabric that Jennifer used per curtain

we know that

The linear equation that represent this situation is

6x=84.5-19.7

Solve for x

6x=84.5-19.7

6x=64.8

x=10.8\ yd

Answer:

log_{2}( \frac{1}{8} )  =  - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of Log as a complimentary operation to powers.

log_{2}( \frac{1}{8} )

means you need to find the exponent of 2 that yields 1/8.

As this number is putting the base on the denominator, we know for a fact it must be some negative number, or

{2}^{ - x}  =  \frac{1}{ {2}^{x} }

Then, by trial and error works just fine, going through the powers of 2.

{2}^{-2} = \frac{1}{ {2}^{2} }  =  \frac{1}{4}  \\ {2}^{-3} = \frac{1}{{2}^{3} }  =  \frac{1}{8}

And that is it.
