Answer:

The correct equation in terms of s is: 4s=260

  • The number of strawberry ice cream produced per day, s=65.
  • The number of chocolate ice cream produced per day ,c=130.
  • The number of vanilla ice cream produced per day ,v=85.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of containers of strawberry ice cream produced per day=s

Let the number of containers of vanilla ice cream produced per day=v

Let the number of containers of chocolate ice cream produced per day=c

Total Number of Ice Cream Containers=280

  • s+v+c=280

Given:

The factory produces twice as much chocolate ice cream as strawberry ice cream. This is written as:

  • c=2s

The factory produces 20 more containers of vanilla ice cream than strawberry ice cream. This is written as:

  • v=s+20

Therefore substituting c=2s and v=s+20 into the first equation: s+v+c=280

s+s+20+2s=280

4s=280-20

4s=260

Divide both sides by 4

s=65

The number of strawberry ice cream produced per day is 65.

The number of chocolate ice cream produced per day =2s=2(65)=130.

The number of vanilla ice cream produced per day =s+20=65+20=85.

In the casino game of roulette, a gambler can bet on which of 38 numbers the ball will land when the roulette wheel is spun. On
ollegr [7]

Answer:

Expected winnings for one spin = 0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected Value = Sum of [(Probability of X)(Value of X)]

E(X) = Σ [P(X).X]

Two Events : X = +68 , P(X) = 1/38 and X = -2 , P(X) = 37/38

E(X) = [(68) (1/38)] + [(-2)(37/38)]

[(68)(0.03)] + [(-2)(0.97)]

= 2.04 - 1.94

= 0.1
