In a lottery game, a player picks six numbers from 1 to 21. If the player matches all six numbers, they win 40,000 dollars. Othe

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

The expected value of this game is -$0.26.

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected value:

Each possible earning/loss multiplied by it's probability.

Probability:

Number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this question, the order in which the numbers are chosen is not important. So we use the combinations formula to solve.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

Probability of winning:

Desired outcomes:

The 6 correct numbers, so $D = 6$

Total outcomes:

6 numbers from a set of 21. So

$T = C_{21,6} = \frac{21!}{6!15!} = 54264$

Probability:

$p = \frac{1}{54265}$

Expected value

$\frac{1}{54265}$ probability of earning 40,000.

$\frac{54264}{54265}$ probability of losing 1. So

$E = \frac{40,000}{54265} - \frac{54264}{54265} = -0.26$

The expected value of this game is -$0.26.

Find an equation for the line with the given properties. Express your answer using the general form or the slope-intercept form

Damm [24]

Answer:

$y=-3x+4$

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the equation in the slope-intercept form first, put the equation in slope-point form using the information given. The slope-point form is $y-(-2)=-3(x-2)$ . Then solve for y.

Distribute -3 to $(x-2)$ ,

$y-(-2)=-3x+6$

Then, add -2 to both sides,

$y=-3x+4$

This is your final answer; the slope is -3 and the y-intercept is 4. There are also a few other ways to solve but I find this the easiest.

What are the zeros of the function f(x) = x2 + 5x + 5 written in simplest radical form?

Pavel [41]

$\boxed{x_{1}=\frac{-5 + \sqrt{5}}{2}} \\ \\ \\ \boxed{x_{2}=\frac{-5 - \sqrt{5}}{2}}$

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Using the quadratic formula:

$x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \\ \\ \\ Here: \\ \\ f(x) = x^2 + 5x + 5 \\ \\ \\ So: \\ \\ a=1 \\ \\ b=5 \\ \\ c=5 \\ \\ \\ x=\frac{-5 \pm \sqrt{5^2-4(1)(5)}}{2(1)} \\ \\ x=\frac{-5 \pm \sqrt{25-20}}{2} \\ \\ x=\frac{-5 \pm \sqrt{5}}{2} \\ \\ \\ Two \ solutions: \\ \\ \boxed{x_{1}=\frac{-5 + \sqrt{5}}{2}} \\ \\ \\ \boxed{x_{2}=\frac{-5 - \sqrt{5}}{2}}$
