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.

50 (x+ 10) = 240<br> Whats the value for x
Katen [24]

Answer:

-26/5 or -5.2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to expand the parentheses:

50x+500=240

Now, subtract 500 from both sides:

50x=-260

Now, divide both sides by 50

x=-26/5=-5.2

Hope this helps!
