Answer:

The expected value = -1.4 Dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of red marbles = 10

The number of red purple = 6

The number of red turquoise = 4

The total number of marbles in the jar = 10 + 6 + 4 = 20 marbles

The prize won for pulling a red marble = 0

The prize won for pulling a purple marble = $2

The prize won for pulling a turquoise marble = $5

The probability of pulling a red marble = 10/20 = 1/2

The probability of pulling a purple marble = 6/20 = 3/10

The probability of pulling a turquoise marble = 4/20 = 1/5

Expected value, EV, probability is the foreseen or bankable future value value for a current investment. The expected value is found by finding the product of each outcome and the probability of occurrence of the outcome and then adding the values of the products together

To find the expected value, EV sum the prizes won multiplied by the probability of winning that prize and then subtract the cost of playing the game.

Therefore;

EV = 1/2×0 + 3/10×2 + 1/5 × 5 -3 = -1.4

The expected value = $(-1.4).

Given:

We can use the SSS congruence theorem to prove that the two triangles in the attached figure are congruent. The SSS or side-side-side theorem states that each side in the first triangle must have the same measurement or must be congruent on each of the opposite side of another triangle. In this problem, for the first triangle, we have sides AC, CM, AM while in the second triangle we have sides BC, CM, and BM. By SSS congruent theorem, we have the congruent side as below:
AC = BC
CM = CM
AM = BM 

The answer is SSS theorem.
