Using the expected value, it is found that the mean of the distribution equals $0.1.
- The expected value, which is the mean of the distribution, is given by <u>each outcome multiplied by it's probability</u>.
The probabilities of <u>each outcome</u> are:
- .0000001 probability of earning $1,000,000.
- .9999999 probability of earning $0.
Thus, the mean is given by:

Thus showing that the expected value is $0.1.

The diver will hit the water when the height is zero, so we will want to set our height function equal to zero
0 = -4t^2 + 11t + 3
we will then factor to find out value of t that make the function equal to zero
0 = (-4t - 1 ) ( t - 3 )
This means our function equals zero when t = -1/4 s and t = 3 seconds
Since time cannot be negative, our final solution is t = 3 seconds
Answer:
740
Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term of an arithmetic series is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Given a₃ = 7 and a₇ = (3 × 7) + 2 = 21 + 2 = 23 , then
a₁ + 2d = 7 → (1)
a₁ + 6d = 23 → (2)
Subtract (1) from (2) term by term
4d = 16 ( divide both sides by 4 )
d = 4
Substitute d = 4 into (1)
a₁ + 2(4) = 7
a₁ + 8 = 7 ( subtract 8 from both sides )
a₁ = - 1
The sum to n terms of an arithmetic series is
=
[ 2a₁ + (n - 1)d ] , thus
=
[ (2 × - 1) + (19 × 4) ]
= 10(- 2 + 76) = 10 × 74 = 740
