Answer:

-$0.26

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation to determine the expected value of playing the game once

Expected value= [18/(18+18+2) x $5)]- [20/(18+18+2) x $5]

Expected value= ($18/38 x $5) - (20/38 x $5)

Expected value= ($2.37-$2.63)

Expected value= -$0.26

Therefore the expected value of playing the game once is -$0.26

Answer:

y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The mother's age is 8 times her son's age. After 6 years, the age of the mother will be 9/2 times her son's age. The present age
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

son = 6 mother = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Mother = m

son = s

m = 8s

m+6 = 9/2 * (s+6)

so

2(8s + 6) = 9(s +6)

16s + 12 = 9s + 54

16s - 9s = 54 - 12

7s = 42

s = 42/7 = 6 years old

so the mother is 8s = 8*6= 48 years old
