Answer: 6</h3>
Explanation:
List list the multiples of each value
- multiples of 2 = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, ...}
- multiples of 3 = {3, 6, 9, 12, 15, ...}
- multiples of 6 = {6, 12, 18, 24, ...}
In each list, we see 6 show up. This is the smallest multiple that is in common; therefore, the LCM is 6
Side note: The LCM is useful to help add and subtract fractions.
393 is the answer to the question
Answer:
a) -$3.03; b) The $5 on the number 25
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the expected value, multiply each probability by its value and then add them together.
The probability of making a profit of $20 is 3/38; this gives us
3/38(20) = 60/38
The probability of losing $5 is 35/38; this gives us
35/38(-5) = -175/38
Together, this gives us
60/38-175/38 = -115/38 ≈ $-3.03
b) Since the expected value for the $5 bet on a single number is $-0.53, and the expected value for the $5 on either 00, 0 or 1 is $-3.03, the better bet is on the number 25. The expected value loses less money with this option.
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
Option 1: the two solution sets overlap at <em>x=1</em>.
Option 2: the two solution sets do not overlap; no solution.
Option 3: together, the two set describe <em>all real numbers</em>.
A represents the speed of the aircraft.
b represents the speed of the bus.
a=2b-5
114/b=218/a
Substitution method
114/b=218/(2b-5)
(2b-5)*(114/b)= 218
(228b-570)/b = 218
228b-570= 218b
228b-218b=570
10b= 570
b=57
Plug the value of b into one of the original equations.
a=2(57)-5
a=114-5
a=109
Final answer:
Average speed of plane= 109
Average speed of bus= 57
