Translating this word problem into an algebraic equation, we get:

3x - 2/5 = 8/5.

Let's combine the constants:  adding 2/5 to both sides of this equation yields  

3x = 10/5, or 3x = 2.

Solving for x:  x = 2/3

Suppose that on each play of a game, a gambler either wins 1 with probability p or loses 1 with probability 1–p (or q). The gamb
musickatia [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information,

Considering both cases when p = 0.5 and when p ≠ 0.5

the probability that the gambler will quit an overall winner is:

P = \dfrac{1 - (\dfrac{1-p}{p} )^K}{1- (\dfrac{1-p}{p})^N } \ \ \  is \  p  \neq 0.5  \  and\  K/N = \dfrac{1}{2}

where ;

N.k = n  and k  = m

Hence, the probability changes to:

P = \dfrac{1 -(\dfrac{1-p}{p})^m}{1 -(\dfrac{1-p}{p})^{m+n}} is  p ≠ 0.5   and k/N = \dfrac{m}{m+n}  is P = 0.5

Let f(x) =-2x-7 and g(x)=-4x+3 find (f•g)(-5)
Ierofanga [76]
F(-5) x g(-5)

f(-5) = -2(-5) - 7
f(-5) = 10 - 7
f(-5) = 3

g(-5) = -4(-5) + 3
g(-5) = 20 + 3
g(-5) = 23

f(-5) x g(-5) = 3 x 23 = 69

Your answer is 69
