Answer: $375

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The probability of winning $100 : P(100)= 0.25

The probability of winning $200 : P(200)= 0.50

The probability of winning $1000 : P(1000)= 0.25

Now, the the expected value of that lottery ticket is given by :-

P(100)\times 100+P(200)\times200+P(1000)\times1000\\\\=0.25\times100+0.50\times200+0.25\times1000\\\\=375

Hence, the the expected value of that lottery ticket =$375

10. Mr. Guerrero left his house and drove north at an average speed of 40 mph.Two hours later, his daughter Miranda left the hou
Charra [1.4K]
Speed=distance / time  ⇒ distance=time x speed
distance=d
time=t
speed= s

d=s*t

Distance  traveled by Mr Guerrero, when his daugther left the house
Data:
s=40 miles/ hour
t=2 hours
d=40 miles/ hour * 2 hours=  80 miles

Total distance traveled by Mr Guerrero:
d=80 miles + 40 miles/hourt    ⇒d=80+40t      (1)

d=total distance.
s=speed.
t=time spent by Miranda for she overtook her father.

Distance traveled by Miranda.
data:

s=48 miles/ hour
d=total distance.
t=time spent by Miranda for she overtook her father.

d=48 miles/hour * t      ⇒d=48t       (2)

With the equations (1) and (2), we make an system of equations:

d=80+40t
d=48t

We can solve this system of equation by equalization method.

80+40t=48t
80=48t-40t
80=8t
t=80/8=10

d=48t
d=48*10=480

Answer: the thistance will be 480 miles.
