Answer:

$0

Step-by-step explanation:

So there's a 0.1 probability of winning $130000 minus $13000 cost and 0.9 chance of losing $13000

Then the expected value of this game is

Probability of winning * winning value + probability of losing * losing value

0.1*(130000 - 13000) - 0.9*13000 = 11700 - 11700 = $0

Anyone playing this game should make even after a while

A random draw is being designed for 210 participants. A single winner is to be chosen, and all the participants must have an equ
Over [174]

Answer: The correct number of balls is (b) 4.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a single winner is to be chosen in a random draw designed for 210 participants. Also, there is an equal probability of winning for each participant.

We are using 10 balls, numbered through 0 to 9. We are to find the number of balls which needs to be picked up, regardless of order, so that each of the 210 participants can be assigned a unique set of numbers.

Let 'r' represents the number of balls to be picked up.

Since we are choosing from 10 balls, so we must have

^{10}C_r=210.

The value of 'r' can be any one of 0, 1, 2, . . , 10.

Now,

if r = 1, then

^{10}C_1=\dfrac{10!}{1!(10-1)!}=\dfrac{10!}{1!9!}=\dfrac{10\times 9!}{1\times 9!}=10

If r = 2, then

^{10}C_2=\dfrac{10!}{2!(10-2)!}=\dfrac{10!}{2!8!}=\dfrac{10\times 9\times 8!}{2\times 1\times 8!}=45

If r = 3, then

^{10}C_3=\dfrac{10!}{3!(10-3)!}=\dfrac{10!}{3!7!}=\dfrac{10\times 9\times 8\times 7!}{3\times 2\times 1\times 7!}=120

If r = 4, then

^{10}C_4=\dfrac{10!}{4!(10-4)!}=\dfrac{10!}{4!6!}=\dfrac{10\times 9\times 8\times\times 7\times 6!}{4\times 3\times 2\times 1\times 6!}=210.

Therefore, we need to pick 4 balls so that each participant can be assigned a unique set of numbers.

Thus, (b) is the correct option.

Please help i will give brainliest to first correct answer<br> (2 5/8 +4 8/17 )+( 9/17 +3 3/8 )
Serggg [28]

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

You don't need the parenthesis, so you get:

2 5/8 + 4 8/17 + 9/17 + 3 3/8

You combine the integer values and get:

9 + 5/8 + 8/17 + 9/17 + 3/8

You combine the fractions with the denom. of 8 and do the same with those with the denom. of 17 and get:

9 + 8/8 + 17/17

You simplify:

9 + 1 + 1 =

Help!!! Will give brainliest!!
Serhud [2]

the sum of three angles of a triangle adds up to 180 degrees. In this problem, you are given two angles.

x+(2x+15)+the measure of angle Q should equal 180.

Since everything is addition, the parenthesis can be removed.

x+2x+15+Q=180. This can then be simplified to 2x+15+Q=180. Subtract 15 from both sides to get 2x+Q=165. Divide both sides by two to get the x by itself. x+Q=82.5.

Unfortunately I don't really know what to do from here, but I hope it helped at least a little.
