Answer:

The bear population gained 70%.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • As there are 10 black bears in an area.
  • By rule of three, we consider that 10 bears represent 100% percentage.

Let is us consider 'p' denotes the current percentage of bears.

so

  • 10 → 100%
  • 17 → p

so

p=\frac{17\times 100}{10}

p=\frac{1700}{10}

p=170

Subtract 100 from the 170 to determine the percentage of increase

170-100=70

Therefore, the bear population gained 70%.

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

A. Add the endpoints

C. Divide -12 by 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the midpoint of the vertical line segment with endpoints (0, 0) and (0, -12).

Step 1: Add the endpoints (y-coordinates)

0+-12=-12

Step 2: Divide -12 by 2

-12/2=-6

Therefore, the y-coordinate of the midpoint of a vertical line segment is -6.

Options A and C are correct.

When playing roulette at a​ casino, a gambler is trying to decide whether to bet $5 on the number 25 or to bet $5 that the outco
USPshnik [31]

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.
