Answer:

The expectation of the policy until the person reaches 61 is of -$4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

0.954 probability of a loss of $50.

1 - 0.954 = 0.046 probability of "earning" 1000 - 50 = $950.

Find the expectation of the policy until the person reaches 61.

Each outcome multiplied by it's probability, so:

E = -0.954*50 + 0.046*950 = -4

The expectation of the policy until the person reaches 61 is of -$4.

Which ordered pair is a solution to the system of linear equations Negative 4 x + y = 8 and x minus 5 y = 17?
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

(-3, -4).

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x + y = 8

x - 5y = 17           Multiply this by 4:

4x - 20y = 68     Add this to the first equation:

-19y = 76

y = 76/-19

y = -4.

Plug this into the second equation:

x - 5(-4) = 17

x = 17 - 20

x = -3.

CHECK this result in equation 1:

-4(-3) + -4 =  8

12 - 4 = 8

8 = 8  <------ OK.
