Answer:
- same: 30×40 = 1200
- different: 20×50 = 1000
Step-by-step explanation:
Same: 30×40 = 1200 . . . . . 2 zeros in the factors; 2 in the product
Different: 20×50 = 1000 . . . 2 zeros in the factors; 3 in the product
__
Same: 0.3×0.4 = 0.12 . . . . no zeros in the factors; no zeros in the product
Different: 0.2×0.4 = 0.08 . . . no zeros in the factors; 1 zero in the product after the decimal point
_____
For a product, the number of zeros will be different if the combined factors of the numbers increase the number of factors of 10 beyond the sum of the factors of 10 of the numbers being multiplied.
<u>Example</u>: neither 2 nor 5 has a factor of 10, but their product does.
__
For a product that is a decimal fraction, the number of leading zeros will increase if the product of the mantissas of the numbers is less than 10. The number of trailing zeros will increase under the conditions discussed above. (0.25×0.4 = 0.100)
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
Here, the term "mantissa" is used to refer to the portion of the number written in scientific notation that multiplies the power of 10.
Well there can be two different solutions for this but i will choose the easier one. Obviously one requires a system of equations which obviously will involve a lot of thinking and some good algebra solving in order for them to solve.
As for hit and trial it is very easy, we can just keep adding the distance as we know they are in different directions. 9 + 6 = 15. So 15 x 2 = 30 miles. So after around 2 hours they will be 30 miles apart if they continue at the same pace.
Answer:
The expected value of betting $500 on red is $463.7.
Step-by-step explanation:
There is not a fair game. This can be demostrated by the expected value of betting a sum of money on red, for example.
The expected value is calculated as:
being G the profit of each possible result.
If we bet $500, the possible outcomes are:
- <em>Winning</em>. We get G_w=$1,000. This happens when the roulette's ball falls in a red place. The probability of this can be calculated dividing the red slots (half of 36) by the total slots (38) of the roulette:
- <em>Losing</em>. We get G_l=$0. This happens when the ball does not fall in a red place. The probability of this is the complementary of winning, so we have:
Then, we can calculate the expected value as:
We expect to win $463.7 for every $500 we bet on red, so we are losing in average $36.3 per $500 bet.
