The game of American roulette involves spinning a wheel with 38 slots: 18 red, 18 black, and 2 green. A ball is spun onto the wh

solong [7]

Answer:

a) $- \frac{1}{19}$

b) SD(x) = 0.9986

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Number of slots 38

slots for red ball 18

slots for black = 18

slots for green 2

outcomes Red Black or Green

Profit 1 -1

P(X) 18/38 20/38

Expected value of wining,

$E(x) = 1. \frac{18}{38} + (-1) \frac{20}{38} = - \frac{2}{38} = - \frac{1}{19}$

B) Standard deviation of winning SD(x)

$SD(x) = \sqrt{(1- (-\frac{1}{19})^2 .\frac{18}{38} + (1- (-\frac{1}{19})^2 .\frac{20}{38}}$

$SD(x) = \sqrt{\frac{360}{361}$

SD(x) = 0.9986

Two students taking a multiple choice exam with 20 questions and four choices for each question have the same incorrect answer o

MrRa [10]

Answer:

The Possible model is binomial distribution model.

Step-by-step explanation:

The argument that both students cheated in the exam can be proved by a hypothesis that both the students got the same answers incorrectly.

The same incorrect answers prove that both students have cheated on the test.

Therefore the sample of incorrect answers is, n = 8

Thus, the success probability, P = 0.25

Since the given condition has only two outcomes that are choosing the same answer or not choosing the same answer. Thus, this can be solved by the binomial distribution model.

So, binomial distribution with n = 8 and p = 0 .25.

Two tailors, Valentina and Laura, sit down to do some embroidery. Valentina can embroider 2 shirts per hour, and Laura can get t

mina [271]

Answer:

Valentina and Laura finished the same total number of shirts in $4$ hours.

Total number of shirts finished by Valentina $=23$

Total number of shirts finished by Laura $=23$

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that Valentina and Laura finished the same total number of shirts in $t$ hours.

Valentina can embroider 2 shirts per hour and Valentina has already completed 15 shirts.

Total number of shirts finished by Valentina $=2t+15$

Laura can get through 3 shirts per hour and Laura has completed 11 shirts.

Total number of shirts finished by Laura $=3t+11$

Therefore,

$2t+15=3t+11\\3t-2t=15-11\\t=4$

So,

Valentina and Laura finished the same total number of shirts in $4$ hours.

Total number of shirts finished by Valentina $=2(4)+15=8+15=23$

Total number of shirts finished by Laura $=3(4)+11=12+11=23$
