Answer:

  • Melissa: 30
  • Ryan: 23
  • Chau: 69

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r represent the number of messages Ryan sent. Then Chau sent 3r and Melissa sent r+7. Their total was ...

  (r+7) +(r) +(3r) = 122

  5r +7 = 122 . . . . . collect terms

  5r = 115 . . . . . . . . subtract 7

  r = 23 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

Ryan sent 23, Melissa sent 30, and Chau sent 69 text messages.

1. The 100 prisoner experiment: 100 prisoners are about to be executed (you can use paper stick figures to model 100 prisoners, or you can do about 10), but the warden has agreed to allow all prisoners to be commuted to a 6-month sentence if they can pass one game. The game states that 100 pieces of paper with each of the prisoner's numbers are to be randomly shuffled into boxes that have random prisoner's numbers (where the number on the paper does not match the number on the boxes.) Each prisoner is allowed to open 50 boxes to find their number such that they have a \frac{1}{2} chance of finding their number. If you find your number, you are cleared to another room to wait. If you don't, then you've messed up huge. If even one prisoner does not find their number, all the prisoners die. If all of the prisoners find their numbers, they all get 6-month sentences instead. The chance of all the prisoners randomly finding their numbers is (\frac{1}{2})^{100}, which is about a 0.0000000000000000000000000000008% chance. 30 zeros after the decimal placement. For reference, two people have a better chance of picking up the same grain of sand from any of the beaches in the world than finding their numbers randomly.

The Vickrey Auction can be modeled into an experiment by testing people's psychological thinking. You can do this with any of your friends. In a Vickrey auction, you put your bids into a closed letter. For an item, the highest bidder wins the auction, but does not pay what he or she put their bid under in the auction, but rather pays what the second bidder had bidded. It teaches people to be more honest, because if you bid the highest and win, you pay the second-highest bidder's payment, which could also be almost equally as high and could cost you a fortune for an undervalued item.

Another great experiment you can do is to measure the different unsynchronizations of analog clocks that are not close together. Scientists have measured atomic clocks that are just a millimeter apart that start ticking in different measures.

2. I select the 100-prisoner experiment.

3. A curved graph like -x^2 would fit perfectly.

4. A quadratic function would fit my experiment the best. The best graph to use would be y = -x^2. An equation with a large curve would be the best for this type of experiment to graph success and failure. More than three quarters of my graph wouls be full of failure and maybe a little more than 10% would be full of success if repeated over 100,000 times. I am not too sure though.

Mia is taking a multiple choice test with a total of 50 points available. Each question is worth exactly 2 points. What would be
sdas [7]

Answer:

Mia's test score is 44 if she got 3 questions wrong.

Mia's test score is (50-2x) if she got x questions wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, Mia is taking a multiple choice test with a total of 50 points available. Each question is worth exactly 2 points.

If she got 3 questions wrong, then

Deducted marks =2\times 3=6

Marks obtained by Mia = Total marks - Deducted marks

                                      =50-6

                                     =44

So, Mia's test score is 44 if she got 3 questions wrong.

If she got x questions wrong, then

Deducted marks =2\times x=2x

Marks obtained by Mia = Total marks - Deducted marks

                                      =50-2x

So, Mia's test score is (50-2x) if she got x questions wrong.
