'Commutative' means you can work it in the other direction without changing it.
But 1/2 is not the same number as 2/1 . So I guess division is NOT commutative.
No no no no no no no no no no no no
To calculate expected value,
We can add up the probability of all possible events.
The 2 possible events are either winning $50 or losing the prize, which is $ - 50
Expected value =
50 x 40 % + (-50) x 60%
= $-10
So the answer is $-10

Step-by-step explanation:
5+5+5+5 = 20 3+3+3 = 9 so add 20+9 = 29
Answer:
1) x = (a+c)/b
2) The equation is correct no matter what value x takes.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) a−(a+b)x=(b−a)x−(c+bx)
<=> a - ax - bx = bx - ax - c - bx
<=> a - ax - bx - (bx - ax - c - bx) = 0
<=> a - ax - bx - bx + ax + c + bx = 0
<=> a - ax + ax - bx - bx + bx + c = 0
<=> a - bx + c = 0
<=> bx = a + c
If b ≠ 0, x = (a+c)/b
2) 2(3x−5a)+9(2a−7b)+3(5a−2x)=0
<=> 2×3x + 2×(-5a) + 9×2a + 9× (-7b) + 3×5a + 3×(-2x) = 0
<=> 6x -10a + 18a - 63b + 15a - 6x = 0
<=> (6x - 6x) + (15a - 10a + 18a) - 63b = 0
<=> 23a - 63b = 0
<=> 23a = 63b
=> a = 63b/23
with all values of x, the equation is correct.
