Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The expected value is the probability of an event multiplied by the number of times the event happens. And if there is more than 1 event, the expected value is the sum of those.
There are 52 cards in a deck.
There are 12 face cards in a deck. (gain 10)
There are 4 ace in a deck. (gain 20)
Any other card is 36 of them. (lose 5)
The probability of face card is 12/52
The probability of ace is 4/52
The probability of any other card is 36/52
Thus the expected values is:
(12/52)(10) + (4/52)(20) + (36/52)(-5) = $0.38
So there are a totally of 52 cards right?(not counting jokers because jokers are not in official cards)
And there are 4 aces right?
So there are 52 outcomes and 4 of them are aces.
So when we write probabilities we write it in fraction form where the total number of outcomes is the denominator and the ones you want to get are the numerator OK?
So the total number is outcomes is 52 and becomes the denominator and 4 the number of aces become the numerator.
So 4/52 right?
And we now have to simplify it right?
And so we divide by the highest common factor right?
In this case 4 because there isn’t other numbers that are factors and greater than 4.
So 4 divided by 4/52 is 1/13 right?
4 goes into 4 1 time and 13 times into 52.
So your answer is 1/13
Answer:
8 pounds per week
Step-by-step explanation:
AVG= total/time span
so
AVG= 128/16
AVG= 8 pounds per week
Hope this helps!
The answer she has is not correct.
All the steps she did are correct, except they forgot to convert the decimal answer into the proper percentage by multiplying it by 100.
The correct answer should be 0.125 * 100 = 12.5%
