Answer:
The expected value of the bet is –$0.95.
Explanation:
Number of cards in a standard deck = 52
Number of diamonds in a standard deck = 13
The probability (P) that the two cards that will be drawn without replacement will be diamonds is therefore as follows:
P = (13 / 52) * (12 / 51) = 0.0588
The probability (P) that the two cards that will be drawn without replacement will NOT be diamonds is also as follows:
1 – P = 1 – 0.0588
1 – P = 0.9412
Amount your friend will pay you if both cards are diamonds = $296
Amount you will pay your friend if both cards are NOT diamonds = -$17 (Note that this is negative since it is a loss)
Expected value of the bet = (P * $296) + ((1 – P) * ($-17)) = (0.0588 * $256) – (0.9412 * 17) = –$0.95
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
C.It is sometimes difficult for partners to agree on every business decision.
Explanation:
In partnerships, the company is owned by several people who held the status as 'Partners'. Everytime the company wants to make a decision, they need to ensure that the majority of these 'partners' agree on the decision. Often time, problem might occurs if the partners have different ideas on how the company should be operated.
In sole proprietorship, only one person held the position as the owner. This mean that the person has full authority in determining the type of decision that should be implemented for the business.
