Answer:

Your Winnings are $ -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Algebraic Equations.

Since we are not told what two balls were actually drawn, then the expected winnings would be of the greatest probability occurring. To figure this out we need to calculate the probability of getting two red balls consecutively and the probability of getting two different colors consecutively. Since there are a total of 10 balls the probabilities of getting one ball would be the following,

Red: \frac{4}{10} =  40%

Green: \frac{6}{10} = 60%

Now we need to know the probability of us getting 2 reds together, two greens, or one of each.

2 Reds: \frac{4}{10} *\frac{4}{10} = \frac{16}{100}  = 16%

2 Greens:  \frac{6}{10} *\frac{6}{10} = \frac{36}{100}  = 36%

1 Each:  \frac{4}{10} *\frac{6}{10} = \frac{24}{100}  = 24%

So we can see that the highest probability is getting 2 Greens in  a row. Meaning you would have to pay $1

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

Samantha has $48 to spend on used video games. Single player games cost $6 each and multi player games cost $12 each. What equat
storchak [24]

Answer:

The equation is

6x + 12y = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form another way of writing a linear equation. It is in the form

Ax + By = C

Total amount with Samantha = $48

Single player games = $6 each

Multi player games = $12 each

Let

Number of Single player games = x

Number of Multi player games = y

The number of single player games (x) and the number of multi player games (y) Samantha can buy is

6x + 12y = 48

That is price × quantity of single player games + price × quantity of multi player games = Total amount with Samantha
