Answer:
The expected value for the person buying the insurance is of -$48.
Step-by-step explanation:
Expected value:
0.169% = 0.00169 probability of earning the death benefit of $100,000, subtracting 217, 100000 - 217 = $99,783.
100 - 0.169 = 99.831% = 0.99831 probability of losing $217.
What is the expected value for the person buying the insurance?

The expected value for the person buying the insurance is of -$48.

Answer: 1728 dollars</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
1 yard = 3 feet
We'll divide by 3 to convert from feet to yards
- 27 feet = 27/3 = 9 yards
- 18 feet = 18/3 = 6 yards
The basement is 9*6 = 54 square yards in floor area.
At $32 per square yard, the total cost to carpet the floor is 32*54 = 1728 dollars.

Part A. 4d- the d is how many desserts will be made
part B. 6-
24 / 4 is 6
The topics you should learn are equating denominators and fractions. This is summing up simple fractions.
So we have to make denominators' numbers the same in order to sum up them all (we can sum fractions if the denominators are the same) , and we did it by cross product (that thing on the picture)
Equating by lcm (least common multiple) is the easiest way, because you might see bigger numbers on other questions, and cross product will bring much bigger numbers, so this technic might confuse you.
By the way lcm of 4 and 5 is already 20
Hope it helps!
