She received $2
--
8x2= 16
So if 8 yuan equals $1 then 16 divided by 8 would be $2, hope this helped.

Consider U = {x|x is a positive integer greater than 1}.

Zinaida [17]

B) {x|x ∈ U and 2x is prime}
x is greater than 1.
the only even prime number is 2
2 times anything is even.
the minimum x value is 2. 2x is 4, therefore higher than the only even number
every value 2x will have a multiple of 2 so it will not be prime.

In a lottery game, a player picks six numbers from 1 to 21. If the player matches all six numbers, they win 40,000 dollars. Othe

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

The expected value of this game is -$0.26.

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected value:

Each possible earning/loss multiplied by it's probability.

Probability:

Number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this question, the order in which the numbers are chosen is not important. So we use the combinations formula to solve.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

Probability of winning:

Desired outcomes:

The 6 correct numbers, so $D = 6$

Total outcomes:

6 numbers from a set of 21. So

$T = C_{21,6} = \frac{21!}{6!15!} = 54264$

Probability:

$p = \frac{1}{54265}$

Expected value

$\frac{1}{54265}$ probability of earning 40,000.

$\frac{54264}{54265}$ probability of losing 1. So

$E = \frac{40,000}{54265} - \frac{54264}{54265} = -0.26$

The expected value of this game is -$0.26.

How do you create your equations when working on a mixture word problem?

Let's try to think about the general form of a word problem involving mixtures.

In general, we have the following scenario:

a merchant sells two kinds of products (coffee, sweets, etc).

we know the unit prices for both kinds of products and for the final mixture

p

1

US dollars per pound for the first kind of product,

p

2

US dollars per pound for the second kind of product

p

m

US dollars per pound for the mixture

we know the total quantity formed by the mixture of the two products (

q

pounds)

we have to find out the quantities of each product needed to form the mixture

(here we have the variables:

x

denoting the quantity of the first kind of product and

y

denoting the quantity of the second kind of product)

Now, we have sufficient information to work out the equations.

First, we know that the sum of the two quantities is

q

pounds, which gives us the first equation:

x

+

y

=

q

Second, we know that the sale price is the product of quantity and unit price, which gives us the second equation:

p

1

x

+

p

2

y

=

p

m

⋅

q

Now, we have a system of two linear equations that can be easily solved by substitution.

No

Step-by-step explanation:

No picture of the bacteria provided, but according to some text books its arround 0.2 - 2m in micrometer measurement, so 3 x 10^-11 is far more smaller than the range.
