15=-2(2t-1) -- expand brackets
15=-4t+2 -- subtract 2
13=-4t -- switch signs, best to have a positive variable
4t=-13
t=-13/4

G(x) = -2x^3 – 15x^2 + 36x
shusha [124]

Consider the function G(x) = -2x^3 - 15x^2 + 36x. First, factor it:

G(x) = -2x^3 - 15x^2 + 36x=-x(2x^2+15x-36)=\\ \\=-x\cdot 2\cdot \left(x-\dfrac{-15-\sqrt{513}}{4}\right)\cdot \left(x-\dfrac{-15+\sqrt{513}}{4}\right).

The x-intercepts are at points \left(\dfrac{-15-\sqrt{513} }{4},0\right),\ (0,0),\ \left(\dfrac{-15+\sqrt{513} }{4},0\right).

1. From the attached graph you can see that

  • function is positive for x\in \left(-\infrty, \dfrac{-15-\sqrt{513} }{4}\right)\cup \left(0,\dfrac{-15+\sqrt{513} }{4}\right);
  • function is negative for x\in \left(\dfrac{-15-\sqrt{513} }{4},0\right)\cup \left(\dfrac{-15+\sqrt{513} }{4},\infty\right).

2. Since

G(-x) = -2(-x)^3 - 15(-x)^2 + 36(-x)=2x^3-15x^2-36x\neq G(x)\ \text{and }\neq -G(x) the function is neither even nor odd.

3. The domain is x\in (-\infty,\infty), the range is y\in (-\infty,\infty).

In a carnival​ game, the player selects a ball one at a​ time, without​ replacement, from an urn containing twotwo purplepurple
dezoksy [38]
<span>The urn contains 2 purple balls and 4 white balls. The player pay $4 for start the game and get $1.5 for every ball drawn until one purple ball is drawn. The maximal revenue would be $7.5 when 4 white balls and 1 purple balls are drawn.
If the purple ball is p and white ball is w, t</span>he possible sample space of drawings are {p, wp, wwp, wwwp, wwwwp}

<span>1. Write down the probability distribution for the player earning

The player earning </span>for each event depends on the number of balls drawn subtracted the ticket price.<span>
p= 2/6
The player earnings would be: 1*$1.5 -$4= - $2.5
wp= (4*2)/(6*5) = 4/15
</span>The player earnings would be: 2*1.5- $4= - $1
wwp= (4*3*2)/(6*5*4)= 1/5
The player earnings would be: 3*$1.5 -$4= $0.5
wwwp= (4*3*2*2)/(6*5*4*3*2)= 2/15 
The player earnings would be: 4*$1.5 -$4= $2
wwwwp= (4*3*2*2*1)/(6*5*4*3*2*1) = 1/15
The player earnings would be: 5*$1.5 -$4=  $3.5

2. Find its expected value

The expected value would be:
chance of event * earning 
You need to combine the 5 possible outcomes from the number 1 to get the total expected value.

Total expected value= (1/3 * - 2.5)+ (4/15*-1) + (1/5*0.5) + (2/15 *2) + ( 1/15 *3.5)= 
(-12.5  -4 + 1.5 + 4 + 3.5) /15= -$7.5
This game basically a rip off.

Find the equation that passes through points A and B
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A(1,7); B(-3,-1); slope m =(-1-7)/-3-1) = -8/-4 = 2

Equation of a line AB is

((y-y1) = m(x-x1)

y - 7 = 2(x-1)

y - 7 = 2x-2

y = 2x + 5
