Answer:
x = 6, y = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
One of the properties of a parallelogram is
The diagonals bisect each other, hence
2x = y + 3 → (1)
2y = 3x → (2)
Rearrange (1) in terms of y by subtracting 3 from both sides
y = 2x - 3 → (3)
Substitute y = 2x - 3 into (2)
2(2x - 3) = 3x ← distribute left side
4x - 6 = 3x ( add 6 to both sides )
4x = 3x + 6 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
x = 6
Substitute x = 6 into (3) for value of y
y = (2 × 6) - 3 = 12 - 3 = 9
Hence x = 6 and y = 9
Answer:
the expected value of this raffle if you buy 1 ticket = -0.65
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Five thousand tickets are sold at $1 each for a charity raffle
Tickets are to be drawn at random and monetary prizes awarded as follows: 1 prize of $500, 3 prizes of $300, 5 prizes of $50, and 20 prizes of $5.
Thus; the amount and the corresponding probability can be computed as:
Amount Probability
$500 -$1 = $499 1/5000
$300 -$1 = $299 3/5000
$50 - $1 = $49 5/5000
$5 - $1 = $4 20/5000
-$1 1- 29/5000 = 4971/5000
The expected value of the raffle if 1 ticket is being bought is as follows:





Thus; the expected value of this raffle if you buy 1 ticket = -0.65
