You can roll a total of 6 by rolling (1, 5), (2, 4), (3, 3), (4, 2), or (5, 1). There are 36 total possible rolls that can be obtained, so you roll a total of 6 with probability 5/36.

You can roll a total of 11 by rolling (5, 6) or (6, 5), hence with probability 2/36 = 1/18.

Any of the other remaining 29 outcomes occurs with probability 29/36.

The expected value of your winnings is

$18*5/36 + $72*1/18 - $9*29/36 = -$0.75

so the answer is E.

Write an equation to model the distance between the point (2,4) and any point along the curve
zlopas [31]

Answer:

Distance D = √ [(2 - x)^2 + (3 - 4x^3)^2].

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula:

D = √[(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2].

So here it is

D = √[(2 - x)^2 + (4 - y)^2]    where x,y is any point on the curve.

D = √[2 - x)^2 + (4 - (4x^3 + 1))^2]

D = √ [(2 - x)^2 + (3 - 4x^3)^2]

The slope of the line is m=3/4. One point is (x, 2) and (3,-4)<br> Find X
Viktor [21]

Answer:

x is 11

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the slope (3/4) and a point (3,-4), so we can use point-slope form (y-y1=m(x-x1)

Substitute the numbers into the equation

y--4=3/4(x-3)

simplify

y+4=3/4(x-3)

do the distributive property

y+4=3/4x-9/4

subtract 4 from both sides

y=3/4x-25/4

this is the equation of the line.

Since it says that (x,2) is a point in the equation, we can substitute it into the equation

2=3/4x-25/4

add 25/4 to both sides

33/4=3/4x

multiply by 4/3

11=x

we can double check by plugging (11,2) into the equation of the line.

2=3/4(11)-25/4

2=33/4-25/4

2=2

it works! :)

Hope this helps!
