Let ∠X and ∠Y be complementary. If sin(X) = 3/5

statuscvo [17]

Since they are complementary
x + y = 90

Sin(o) = Cos (90-0)

Therefore, Cos x = Sin y = 4/5 [ Because x and y are complementary]

tekilochka [14]

Let $X$ be a random variable denoting the amount of winnings in any given round of the game. There is some probability $p$ of winning where $P(X=99,500)=p$ , while $P(X=-500)=1-p$ , assuming these are the only two possible outcomes. So we have

$\mathbb E[X]=\displaystyle\sum_xxP(X=x)=99,500p-500(1-p)=100$

$100,000p-500=100\implies p=\dfrac3{500}=0.006$

What is 6(5-8v)+12=-54

stira [4]

V=2 bc when u distribute the 6 to the numbers in the parenthesis u get 30-48v+12=54 then u subract 12 on both sides getting 30-48v=-66 then u subtract 30 on both sides making it -48v=-96 and mental math leads to -48•2=-96
