This can be solve by just knowing what is amount that is going to be yours and the amount that you will need to give for the prize. So the expected value of your gain is

[$2/ ticket (1500 tickets)] – ( $500 + $250 + 150 + $650) = $2035 is the expected gain

If a seed is planted, it has a 80% chance of growing into a healthy plant.
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

0.336

Step-by-step explanation:

Use binomial probability:

P = nCr p^r q^(n-r)

where n is the number of trials,

r is the number of successes,

p is the probability of success,

and q is the probability of failure (1-p).

Here, n = 8, r = 7, p = 0.8, and q = 0.2.

P = ₈C₇ (0.8)⁷ (0.2)⁸⁻⁷

P = 0.336

Simplify −2xy + 3x − 2xy + 3x and can you explain the answer?
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

 -4xy+6x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Expression =  -2xy+3x-2xy+3x

Simplifying the expression :

Step 1. Write the expression =   -2xy+3x-2xy+3x

Step 2.  Add the similar elements:  3x+3x=6x

          =  -2xy-2xy+6x

Step 3. Add the similar elements:  -2xy-2xy=-4xy

           = -4xy+6x

Therefore, -4xy+6x is the simplified form of  -2xy+3x-2xy+3x

Write the quadratic equation y= x^2 -6x = 7 in vertex form.
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

(x - 3)² - 16 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Subtract 7 from both sides

x² - 6x + 7 = 0 ← in standard form

with a = 1, b = - 6

Given a quadratic in standard form then the x- coordinate of the vertex is

x_{vertex} = - \frac{b}{2a} = - \frac{-6}{2} = 3

Substitute x = 3 into the equation for y

y = 3² - 6(3) - 7 = 9 - 18 - 7 = - 16 ⇒ (h, k) = (3, - 16)

y = (x - 3)² - 16 = 0
