We know that the last number on the second row is 5. What we need to know is how they got 5. We can...

The 8 on the first row is proportional to the 5 on the second row. For them to get 5 on the second row they multiplied the 8 by (5/8). I found that out by dividing the second number which was 8 by the first number which was 5.

So, 8 × (5/8) = 5. Since everything is proportional, we can multiply (5/8) to the other numbers on the first row to find out their numbers on the second row.

40 * (5/8) = 25

80 * (5/8) = 50

Those are the new numbers. If you have any questions then leave a comment. Good luck!

The ratio given is

40:80:8

The equivalent ratio is

? : ? : 5

In the first ratio, look at the number in the same position as the 5 in the second ratio and compare it to the other 2 numbers.  80 is 10 times 8, and 40 is 5 times 8.  Bring that same ratio down to the equivalent ratio...

5 x 10 = 50
5 x 5 = 25

The equivalent ratio is

25:50:5

Suppose that on each play of a game, a gambler either wins 1 with probability p or loses 1 with probability 1–p (or q). The gamb
musickatia [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information,

Considering both cases when p = 0.5 and when p ≠ 0.5

the probability that the gambler will quit an overall winner is:

P = \dfrac{1 - (\dfrac{1-p}{p} )^K}{1- (\dfrac{1-p}{p})^N } \ \ \  is \  p  \neq 0.5  \  and\  K/N = \dfrac{1}{2}

where ;

N.k = n  and k  = m

Hence, the probability changes to:

P = \dfrac{1 -(\dfrac{1-p}{p})^m}{1 -(\dfrac{1-p}{p})^{m+n}} is  p ≠ 0.5   and k/N = \dfrac{m}{m+n}  is P = 0.5
