If you draw a card with a value of three or less from a standard deck of cards, I will pay you $43. If not, you pay me $11. (Ace

s are considered the highest card in the deck.) Step 1 of 2 : Find the expected value of the proposition. Round your answer to two decimal places. Losses must be expressed as negative values.

If W is a random variable representing your winnings from playing the game, then it has support

W=\begin{cases}43&\text{if you draw something with value at most 3}\\-11&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}

There are 52 cards in the deck. Only the 1s, 2s, and 3s fulfill the first condition, so there are 12 ways in which you can win $43. So W has PMF

P(W=w)=\begin{cases}\frac{12}{52}=\frac3{13}&\text{for }w=43\\1-\frac{12}{52}=\frac{10}{13}&\text{for }w=-11\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}

You can expect to win

E[W]=\displaystyle\sum_ww\,P(W=w)=\frac{43\cdot3}{13}-\frac{11\cdot10}{13}=\boxed{\frac{19}{13}}

or about $1.46 per game.

What is the measure of x?​
victus00 [196]

Answer: x = 156°

Step-by-step explanation:

So it is proven all triangles equal 180° and all straight angles are 180° so

85+71= 156

180-156=24°

but since you are trying to find x (to create the straight angle) and now know the other missing angle is 24°

180-24= 156

x=156°

Use matrices and elementary row to solve the following system:
LiRa [457]

I assume the first equation is supposed to be

5x-3y+2z=13

and not

5x-3x+2x=4x=13

As an augmented matrix, this system is given by

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}5&-3&2&13\\2&-1&-3&1\\4&-2&4&12\end{array}\right]

Multiply through row 3 by 1/2:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}5&-3&2&13\\2&-1&-3&1\\2&-1&2&6\end{array}\right]

Add -1(row 2) to row 3:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}5&-3&2&13\\2&-1&-3&1\\0&0&5&5\end{array}\right]

Multiply through row 3 by 1/5:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}5&-3&2&13\\2&-1&-3&1\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]

Add -2(row 3) to row 1, and add 3(row 3) to row 2:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}5&-3&0&11\\2&-1&0&4\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]

Add -3(row 2) to row 1:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}-1&0&0&-1\\2&-1&0&4\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]

Multiply through row 1 by -1:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&0&0&1\\2&-1&0&4\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]

Add -2(row 1) to row 2:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&0&0&1\\0&-1&0&2\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]

Multipy through row 2 by -1:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&0&0&1\\0&1&0&-2\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]

The solution to the system is then

\boxed{x=1,y=-2,z=1}

The formula for the volume of a cone is V = jarh, where V is the volume, r is the radius, and h Is the heightWhat is the volume
olga nikolaevna [1]

Given:

The radius, r=4x

The height,

h=21xy^2

To find the volume of the cone:

The volume of the cone formula is,

V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h

Substitute the values of r and h in the above formula we get,

\begin{gathered} V=\frac{1}{3}\pi\times(4x)^2\times21xy^2 \\ =\frac{1}{3}\pi\times16x^2\times21xy^2 \\ =\pi\times16x^2\times7xy^2 \\ =112\pi x^3y^2 \end{gathered}

Hence, the volume of the cone is

V=112\pi x^3y^2

Thus, the correct option is option D.

Michael drives to work and home from work each workday. He travels a total of 160 miles at the end of the workweek. How far is M
sdas [7]

Answer:

Michael's house is 16 miles away from work.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Total distance traveled by Michael at the end of the workweek = 160 miles.

Let x miles be the distance between Michael's house from work.

Thus, total distance covered in one day =

2x\text{ miles}

Total distance covered in one weekday(5 days) =

2x\times 5 = 10x\text{ miles}

Equating,

10x = 160\\\Rightarrow x  = 16

Thus, Michael's house is 16 miles away from work.
