There are 3 face cards for each of the 4 suits, leading to a total possible gain of 120, there are 40 other cards leading to a total possible loss of 80.
120 - 80 = 40.
40 / 52 (total number of cards) = about .77

Final Answer:
The expected value of a draw is positive 0.77 points.
Hope I helped :)

nata0808 [166]

2x - 45 = x +4

Add 45 to each side:

2x = x + 49

Subtract 1x from each side:

x = 49

The Ericsson method is one of several methods claimed to increase the likelihood of a baby girl. In a clinical trial, results co
Travka [436]

Answer:

0.001

Step-by-step explanation:

Ericsson is claimed to increase the likelihood of a baby girl ;

Given the alternative hypothesis to buttress this claim :

HA : p>0.5

In other to establish the success of Ericsson's claim, then there must be significant evidence to reject the Null hypothesis ; hence adopt the alternative.

To Do this, we need a very small Pvalue ; such that it will be lesser than the α - value in other to reject the Null and adopt the alternative.

Recall ;

Pvalue < α ; We reject the Null

Therefore, from the options, we choose the smallest Pvalue as we want the Pvalue to be as small as possible.

A box measures 1/6 ft. long, 1/4 ft. wide, and 1/3 ft. high. Find the volume of the box in inches. Do not include units in your
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the final answer has to be in inches.

To convert ft = in, multiply given ft. by 12.

1/6 = 1/6 * 12 = 2

1/4 = 0.25 * 12 = 3

1/3 = 0.3 * 12 = 4

2*3*4 = 23 cubic in.

Find the minimum sample size needed to estimate the percentage of Democrats who have a sibling. Use a 0.1 margin of error, use a
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

The minimum sample size is  n  =135

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The confidence interval is ( lower \ limit  = \  0.44,\ \ \   upper \ limit  = \ 0.51)

    The margin of error is  E =  0.1

   

Generally the sample  proportion can be mathematically evaluated as

     \r p = \frac{ upper \ limit  + lower \ limit }{2}

    \r p = \frac{ 0.51 + 0.44}{2}

    \r p = 0.475

Given that the confidence level is  98% then the level of significance can be mathematically evaluated as

         \alpha = 100 -  98

        \alpha = 2\%

        \alpha =0.02

Next we obtain the critical value of  \frac{\alpha }{2} from the normal distribution table  

   The value is

        Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  2.33

Generally the minimum sample size is evaluated as

      n  =[ \frac { Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }}{E} ]^2 *  \r p (1- \r p )

     n  =[ \frac { 2.33}{0.1} ]^2 *  0.475(1- 0.475 )

     n  =135
