Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(9/2)(8 - x) + 36 = 102 - (5/2)(3x + 24)

Multiply both sides by 2.

9(8 - x) + 2 * 36 = 2 * 102 - 5(3x + 24)

Distribute on both sides.

72 - 9x + 72 = 204 - 15x - 120

Combine like terms on each side.

144 - 9x = 84 - 15x

Subtract 144 from both sides. Add 15x to both sides.

6x = -60

Divide both sides by 6.

x = -10

The night watchman in a factory cannot guard both the safe in back and the cash register in front. The safe contains $6000, whil

Zolol [24]

Answer:

The guard should be positioned at the safe

Step-by-step explanation:

The night watchmen should be positioned to guard whichever place gives the highest expected value to the thief.

The expected value of robbing the safe is:

$EV_{s} = \$ 6000*0.2\\EV_{s} = \$ 1200$

The expected value of robbing the cash register is:

$EV_{r} = \$ 1000*0.8\\EV_{r} = \$ 800$

Therefore, the guard should be positioned at the safe since it yields a higher expected value to the thief in case he tries to rob it.
