2 bags
7 apples
A) Instead of a lets say:
a = 1, 2 , 3
If a =1 then, (you already know there are 2 bags) you have 1 apple in each bag, making total of 2 apples
If a =2 then you are having 2 apples in each bag making total of 4 apples
If a =3, 3 apples in each bag, making total of 6 apples
Conclusion:
2 * 1 = 2
2 * 2 = 4
2 * 3 = 6
See the difference & pattern here
Now lets do with a
2 * a = 2a
B) If a = 6
then, 2*6 = 12
lets continue from a =3
2*4=8
2*5=10
2*6=12
See the pattern again
Tip: Drawing making problem understand better.
Length x width equals area of rectangle. 301/2÷61/2=5
the width of the rectangle equals 5 inches.
Answer:
Expected return for site A = $9.6 million
Expected return for site B = $12.4 million
according to the above results the company should choose SITE B because it has higher Expected return
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
For site A,
Site A net if successful = $30 million
Success probability = 0.4
Site A loss if not successful= -$4 million
Probability of not successful = 0.6
For site B.
Site B net if successful = $60 million
Success probability = 0.3
Site B loss if not successful= -$8 million
Probability of not successful = 0.7
To estimate the expected return on an event with outcomes X1 and X2 with probabilities p1 and p2
E = X1(p1) + X2(p2)
Substituting for site A
E = 30(0.4) - 4(0.6)
E = $9.6 million
Substituting for site B
E = 60(0.3) - 8(0.7)
E = $12.4 million
Therefore, according to the above results the company should choose site B because it has higher Expected return
Omg what is this...im questioning life rn?!?!?!?!
