Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-8 < |8|

-|-4| < -2

-7 > -9

absolute value has the || sign around the number. If you see that, and there's a "minus" sign, then reverse it to a PLUS sign. Because absolute value is just how far away the number is to 0. So -8 is "8" to 0.

now if we have for example, -|-4| then it'd be -4 because |-4| is 4, but then -4 again cause there's a minus sign.

Lucy offers to play the following game with Charlie: "Let us show dimes to each other, each choosing either heads or tails. If w

Darya [45]

Answer:

(a)Charlie is right

(b)$0

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)A game is said to be a fair game when the probability of winning is equal to the probability of losing. Mathematically, a game is said to be fair when the expected value is zero.

In the game, the possible outcomes are: HH, HT, TH and TT.

Charlie wins when the outcome is HH, TT

P(Charlie Wins)=2/4
P(Charlie Losses)=2/4

Lucy wins when the outcome is HT or TH

P(Lucy Wins)=2/4
P(Lucy Losses)=2/4

Therefore, the game is fair. Charlie is right.

(b)

If the outcome is HH, Lucy pays $3.

If the outcome is HT or TH, Lucy gets $2.

If the outcome is TT, Lucy pays $1.

The probability distribution of Lucy's profit is given below:

$\left|\begin{array}{c|c|c|c}$Profit(x)&-\$3&-\$1&\$2\\P(x)&1/4&1/4&2/4\end{array}\right|$

Expected Profit

$=(-3 \times \frac14)+(-1\times \frac14)+(2 \times \frac24)\\=$0$

Lucy's expected profit from the game is $0.

You exercise for one hour each day and you burn 8.5 calories per minute. If you graphed the number of calories you burned as the

mezya [45]

For every minute you exercise you burn 8.5 calories. It's a linear pattern, so the graph would be a line.
The more minutes you exercise, the more calories you burn, so the graph would rise from left to right.
The number of minutes and the number of calories can't be negative numbers, so the graph would be only in the first quadrant.
The larger the number of minutes, the more calories you would burn.

The answer is D.

Find two matrices A and B such that 2A-3B= [5 0

amm1812

The easy answer: If, say, B is the zero matrix, i.e.

$B=\begin{bmatrix}0&0\\0&0\end{bmatrix}$

then

$2A=\begin{bmatrix}5&0\\-1&2\end{bmatrix}\implies A=\begin{bmatrix}\dfrac52&0\\\\-\dfrac12&1\end{bmatrix}$
