Suppose that you and a friend are playing cards and decide to make a bet. If your friend draws three non-face cards, where a fac

e card is a Jack, a Queen, or a King, in succession from a standard deck of 52 cards without replacement, you give him $10. Otherwise, he pays you $20. If the same bet was made 25 times, how much would you expect to win or lose? Round your answer to the nearest cent, if necessary.

First let us calculate the probability that three non-face cards will be drawn in succession without replacement.

There are 40 non-face cards in a deck of 52 cards.

Probability of 3 successive non-face cards = (40/52)*(39/51)*(38/50) = 0.447

Therefore, the probability that it will not be 3 successive non-face cards is 1-0.447 = 0.553

Hence, for each game the expected return would be:

Return = 0.447 * (-$10) + 0.553 ($20) = $6.59 per bet

For 25 bets:

Total return = $6.59 * 25

Total return = $164.75

If the bet is performed 25 times, expect to win $164.75.

There are 10 Superscript 9 bytes in a gigabyte. There are 10 Superscript 6 bytes in a megabyte. How many times greater is the st
ohaa [14]

To find the how many  times greater is the storage capacity of a 1-gigabyte flash drive than a 1-megabyte flash drive we have to apply exponent operation.

The storage capacity of a 1-gigabyte is 1000 greater than 1-megabyte flash drive.

Given:

The given exponent for gigabyte is,

10^9

The given exponent of megabyte is,

10^6

<h3>What is exponent rule?</h3>
  • The power rule of exponent rule is defined as if raise the a number with exponent to power then we will mulitply exponent to the power times.  
  • to change the negative exponent into a positive we have to invert the base.

Calculate the storage capacity.

\dfrac{10^9}{ 10^6}=10^9-6}\\&#10;\dfrac{10^9}{ 10^6}=10^3\\&#10;\dfrac{10^9}{ 10^6}=1000

Thus, the storage capacity of a 1-gigabyte is 1000 greater than 1-megabyte flash drive.
