As your sixteenth birthday approaches you are looking for ways to make money so you can buy a used car. Currently, you earn $10

a week for doing chores around the house. Your father realizes that you are trying to save up, and offers you the following deal. You can either be paid the $10, or you can pull two bills from a brown paper bag. In the bag there are two $1 bills, two $5 bills, and a $10 bill. For example, you might pull out a $1 bill followed by a $5 bill, and earn only $6. Or you might pull out the $10 bill followed by a $5 bill and earn $15. If you were given this option every week, what would be better for you to do in the long run? Is pulling two bills from the paper bag a great way to make money? Justify your answer​

A. Personally if i was given these 2 options i would take the choice of drawing 2 bills from the bag per week.

B. Yes, i do not think pulling 2 bills from the bag is a good way to make money.

A. You could either get 10$ per week or you could get, 2$ 6$ 6$ 10$ 11$ 11$ 15$ 15$ now this depends largely on luck but logically 5 out of 9 times you will get 10 dollars or more so there is a higher chance you get more money from drawing money.

B. It is a good way to make money because 2/9ths of the time you will get 15$ and for every time you get 6$ you will get an equal amount of 15$ and you will get 21$ in the 2 weeks so it adds up, if you have bad luck or do this for a short amount of time then you could be losing out but if you have an average amount of luck then it will be worth the chance.

What is the value of c in the equation below? 2^-4(2^2)=a^b=c
Triss [41]

Answer:

The answer is option 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to use Indices Law,

{a}^{m}  \times  {a}^{n}  =  {a}^{m + n}

{a}^{ - n}  =  \frac{1}{ {a}^{n} }

So for this question :

{2}^{ - 4}  \times  {2}^{2}

=  {2}^{ - 4 + 2}

=  {2}^{ - 2}

{a}^{b}  = c \\ c =  {2}^{ - 2}

c =  \frac{1}{ {2}^{2} }

c =  \frac{1}{4}
