Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's do like-terms first which on the right side has the 2p:

17-2p=4p+5

Then make the variables on one side:

17=4p+2p+5

17=6p+5

Let's put that 5 on the other side:

17-5=6p

12=6p

Lastly, divide 6 to get a final remaining p.

12/6=p

2=p

Hope you understand :)

3. In the equation below, k is a constant. If x = 6, what is the value of k?<br> Vk + 2 - x = 0

ehidna [41]

Answer:

Write the equation with 6 for x

Vk + 2 - 6 = 0

Vk - 4 = 0

Add 4 to both sides

Vk = 4

Divide both sides by V

k = 4/V

Suppose a basketball player has made 217 out of 302 free throws. If the player makes the next 3 free throws, I will pay you $23.

Anna [14]

Answer:

-$0.90

Step-by-step explanation:

There are only two possible outcomes, winning $23 (W) or losing $15 (L). Therefore:

$P(W) + P(L) = 1$

The probability of the player making his next 3 free throws (P(W)) is:

$P(W) = \frac{217}{302}*\frac{217}{302}*\frac{217}{302}\\P(W) = 0.37098$

The probability of the player NOT making his next 3 free throws (P(L)) is:

$P(L) = 1 - P(W) = 1 - 0.37098\\P(L) = 0.62902$

Expected value (EV) is given by the payoff of each outcome multiplied by its probability:

$EV = (23*0.37098) -(15*0.62902)\\EV = -\$0.90$

The expected value of the proposition is -$0.90
