The full road trip is 50 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Distance traveled by Joe's family = 30 miles

This represents 60% of the total distance to be traveled.

Let,

x be the total distance.

60% of x = 30

$\frac{60}{100}*x=30\\0.6x=30$

Dividing both sides by 0.6

$\frac{0.6x}{0.6}=\frac{30}{0.6}\\x=50\ miles$

The full road trip is 50 miles.

In a state's Pick 3 lottery game, you pay $1.15 to select a sequence of three digits (from 0 to 9), such as 966. If you sel

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

A) 1000 different selections

B) probability of winning = 0.001

C) Net profit on winning = $257.20

D) E(y) = -0. 89165

E) Option B - The Pick 4 game is a better bet because it has a larger expected value.

Step-by-step explanation:

A) For the different selections possible, since each of the digits from 0 - 9 can take a total of 10 digits, then the different selections possible will be = 10³ = 1000 different selections

B) To find the probability of winning, since only one pick can be a winning one. Thus probability of winning = 1/1000 = 0.001

C) Net profit on winning = Amount won - Amount staked

Amount won = $258.35

Amount staked = $1.15

Thus;

Net profit on winning = $258.35 - $1.15

Net profit on winning = $257.20

D) If we call the net profit "y", then Expected value is:

E(y) = 257.2(0.001) - 1.15(1 - 0.001)

E(y) = 0.2572 - 1.14885

E(y) = -0. 89165

E) We are told that:If you bet $ 1.15 in a certain state's Pick 4 game, the expected value is negative −$0.89

The expected value of -0.89 in pick 4 is better than that in pick 3 because it's larger.

Manny can assemble a computer by himself in 50 minutes. Lucy does the same job in 45 minutes. How long will it take to assemble

jonny [76]

Manny can assemble a computer in 50 minutes. That means, in a minute Manny does $\frac{1}{50}$ job.

Lucy can assemble a computer in 45 minutes. That means, in a minute Lucy does $\frac{1}{45}$ job.

If they are working together, in a minute they will do:
$\dfrac{1}{50} + \dfrac{1}{45}$
$= \dfrac{9}{450} + \dfrac{10}{450} \text{(equalize the denominator)}$
$=\dfrac{19}{450}$
In a minute they will do $\frac{19}{450}$ job

To finish the job they will do it in $\frac{450}{19}$ minutes or about 24 minutes.
