You are a contestant on a game show called ñBargain or No Bargain.î You are presented with three briefcases, which contain rewar

ds of $500,000, $2,000, and $500. The host of the show says you can either open one random case and keep the amount inside, or you can accept a guaranteed award of $160,000. What is the mathematically correct decision, and why?

I think the correct decision to make is to accept the guaranteed award of $160000 because the probability of choosing the briefcase containing 500,000 dollars is very low. Chances are you would be able to choose the cases with lower value than the guaranteed award. Hope this helps.

Someone help me with this I will make you brain
hram777 [196]

Step-by-step explanation:

let's look at the full numbers under the square roots when bringing the external factors back in :

sqrt(9×9×2) - sqrt(3×3×7) + sqrt(8) - sqrt(28)

and let's present these numbers as the product of their basic prime factors

sqrt(3×3×3×3×2) - sqrt(3×3×7) + sqrt(2×2×2) - sqrt(2×2×7)

now we see that we have 2 pairs of square roots : 1 pair ends with a factor of 2, and one pair with a factor of 7.

let's combine these

sqrt (3×3×3×3×2) + sqrt(2×2×2) - sqrt(3×3×7) - sqrt (2×2×7)

and now we move the factors of 2 and 7 back out in front (of course, we need to apply the square root on these factors) :

9×sqrt(2) + 2×sqrt(2) - 3×sqrt(7) - 2×sqrt(7) =

= (9+2)×sqrt(2) - (3+2)×sqrt(7) = 11×sqrt(2) - 5×sqrt(7)

and that is the first answer option.

Kathy slices through a circular cake. The cake has a diameter of 14 inches. The slice that Kathy made is straight and has a leng
Tanzania [10]

Answer: chord

Step-by-step explanation:

A chord is a straight line that's typically drawn from one particular edge of a circle to another.

In this case, the diameter is 14cm while the length of the line drawn is 11cm, therefore the diameter isn't a chord. It's not a radius as well as the diameter divided by 2 gives the radius which should be 7cm.

Therefore, it's a chord.
