Assuming a fair die,
probability of winning 0.25 = (2/6) = 1/3
probability of losing 0.25 = (4/6) = 2/3
Expected win
= sum (proba.*winning)
=0.25*(1/3) + (-0.25)(2/3)
=-0.25/3
= - (1/12) dollars (negative sign means expecting to lose)
Evaluated and Yes it would be 0
Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
- translate down 3
- reflect across the horizontal line through A
Step-by-step explanation:
1. There are many transformations that will map a line to a parallel line. Translation either horizontally or vertically will do it. Reflection across a line halfway between them will do it, as will rotation 180° about any point on that midline.
In the first attachment, we have elected to translate the line down 3 units.

2. Again, there are many transformations that could be used. Easiest is one that has point A as an invariant point, such as rotation CW or CCW about A, or reflection horizontally or vertically across a line through A.
Any center of rotation on a horizontal or vertical line through A can also be used for a rotation that maps one line to the other.
In the second attachment, we have elected to reflect the line across a horizontal line through A.
Getting 10% a month is the best option if she put $500 in. That would be $50 the first month. $55 the second month etc. -- which would be more than the $500 in answer 1.
