Answer:
The expected payoff for Ann is that she loses the game
Step-by-step explanation:
The expected payoff for Ann is that she loses the game, this is because only 5 out of the 20 sections allow Ann to win money, this is only 25% of the spinner. Meaning that 75% of the spinner will cause Ann to lose the game. Rolling two times increases the odds that she will lose the game. Since the greatest probability is that Ann will land on a section that causes her to lose the game, then this is the expected payoff.

Answer:
x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume you want to find the value of x.
Know (or prove) that in this geometry, all of the right triangles are similar. That means the ratios of corresponding sides are proportional.
short side / hypotenuse = 9/x = x/25
x^2 = (9)(25) . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 25x ("cross multiply")
x = √((9)(25)) = (3)(5) . . . take the square root
x = 15
