Answer: Ask the king to draw first and read it. Explain that if the king selects "leave" the PM's choice could only be "stay". It is then unnecessary for the PM to draw. It avoids embarrassing the king in his lie, demonstrates the PM's intelligence, and keeps his job.

liraira [26]

Answer:

A) Gamblers lose a relatively small amount most of the time but there are a few large pay-outs

B) if person play 5 times, the mean of the casino's profit is $0.04

if person play 5 times, the standard deviation of the casino's profit i$268.33

C) If gamblers play this machine 1000 times in a​ day, the mean is $80

If gamblers play this machine 1000 times in a​ day, the standard deviation is   $3794.3

D) Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

From the details given , it is observed that a casino knows that people play the soft machines in hopes of hitting the jackpot but most of them lose their dollars

There is a certain machine that pays out an average of $0.92 with standard deviation of $120

A) The standard deviation is so large because, Gamblers lose a relatively small amount most of the time but there are a few large pay-outs

B) if person play 5 times, the mean of the casino's profit is

E(x) = ( 1 - $0.92) x 5

     = $0.04

if person play 5 times, the standard deviation of the casino's profit is

S(3x) = √120² x 5

      = $268.33

C) If gamblers play this machine 1000 times in a​ day, the mean is

E(x) = ( 1 - $0.92) x 1000

     = $80

If gamblers play this machine 1000 times in a​ day, the standard deviation is

S(x) = √120² x 1000

      = $3794.3

D) The casino is likely to be profitable due to the average pays out winning jackpot in slot machines occur very less in $0.29, so more people play winning jackpot in slot machines in casino, the casino will become more profitable.

The sum of two numbers is 70.<br> One number is 10 more the twice the other number.
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

20 and 50

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 70

y = 2x + 10

Use the substitution method:

y = 70 - x

y = 2x + 10

70 - x = 2x + 10

3x = 60

x = 20

x + y = 70

20 + y = 70

y = 50

<u>x = 20</u>

<u>y = 50</u>

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

  5x^2 +10x

Step-by-step explanation:

The area is the product of the height and width. For this exercise, it is convenient to compute the rectangle areas individually, then write their sum:

  blue rectangle area = (5x)(x) = 5x^2

  red rectangle area = (5x)(2) = 10x

Total area = 5x^2 +10x.

_____

If you start by writing an expression for the total area, expanding it requires you deal with the unlike terms separately anyway:

  5x(x +2) = 5x(x) +5x(2) = 5x^2 +10x
