To calculate expected value,
We can add up the probability of all possible events.
The 2 possible events are either winning $50 or losing the prize, which is $ - 50
Expected value =
50 x 40 % + (-50) x 60%
= $-10
So the answer is $-10

Answer: 3.675 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, when the object hits the ground, h=0:
h=−16t^2+48.6t+37.5
0=−16t^2+48.6t+37.5
We have to apply the quadratic formula:
For: ax2+ bx + c
x =[ -b ± √b²-4ac] /2a
Replacing with the values given:
a=-16 ; b=48.6; c=37.5
x =[ -(48.6) ± √(-48.6)²-4(-16)37.5] /2(-16)
x = [ -48.6 ± √ 4,761.96] /-32
x = [ -48.6 ± 69] /-32
Positive:
x = [ -48.6 + 69] /-32 = -0.6375
Negative:
x = [ -48.6 - 69] /-32 = 3.675 seconds (seconds can't be negative)

Answer:
P (not drawing a black marble) = 4/5
P (red marble) = 3/10
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of marbles is
5 blue marbles +2 black marbles+ 3 red marbles = 10 marbles
P (not drawing a black marble) =
The marbles that are not black/ total marbles
(blue + red)/ total
(5+3)/10
8/10
4/5
P (red marble) = red marble/ total
= 3/10
