Answer:

Total possible number of outcomes = C(24,6) [24 choose 6]

=24!/(6!18!)

= 134596

Out of which there is only one winning combination.

Therefore we conclude:

P(win 20000)=1/134596

P(lose 1)=134595/134596

and hence the expected value is:

20000*(1/134596)+(-1)*(134595/134596)

=-114595/134596

=-0.8514 (rounded to four places after decimal)

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain is only affected if certain values can make the result something that either doesn't make sense or is an error. In your situation, it wants you to find the domain of f/g, which is a fraction. The only rule we have for fractions regarding domain is that we simply can't divide by zero, to find the domain for any fraction with variables in the denominator, what I do is take the denominator, set it equal to 0, and solve for x.

So, if we're taking f/g, we have:

\frac{3x^2 + x^4 + 2}{4x - 3}

4x - 3 makes up our denominator, the bottom part of the fraction. So

4x - 3 = 0

4x = 3

x = 3/4

So the denominator is equal to zero when x is equal to 3/4. This would produce an error in any calculator because you can't divide by zero. The domain here is all real numbers except for 3/4.

(For future problems, the only thing to look out for is if your numerator, the top part of the fraction, factors into something that cancels with the bottom. In that case, it wouldn't affect domain because you aren't actually dividing by anything. For example:

\frac{x^2 - 4}{x-2}

If we factor the top, we see that x^2 - 4 = (x - 2)(x + 2). In this case, we have (x - 2) in both the top and bottom of the fraction, so it cancels out, and from there nothing else is restricting our domain. It would be all real numbers in a case like that.)

The components are Nx= Ncosθ  and Ny= -Nsinθ

<h3>What is a Vector?</h3>

We know that the vector quantities are those quantities that have magnitude as well as direction.

Each vector quantity can be divided into two parts a horizontal and vertical component, the vertical component is known as the sine component while the horizontal component is known as the cosine component.

A vector component is the product of its length and the component angle.

Generally, F sinθ is the vertical component and F cosθ is the horizontal component,

Now, from the diagram the horizontal component of vector 'r' is

Nx= Ncosθ

and, the vertical component will be

Ny= -Nsinθ

this is in the opposite direction

2 + 3 × (8 + 53 ÷ 1)<br><br> Can please include the working to it. Thank you,
luda_lava [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

2 + 3 × (8 + 53 ÷ 1)

we first work out the equation in the brackets

so...

(8 + 53 ÷ 1)

division comes first so we divide 53÷1 which is 1 so the equation looks like this:

(8+53)

we work this out and get

61

then we work the rest out

2 + 3 × <u>61</u>

multiplication comes first so...

3×61= 183

and

2+ 183= 185

Therefore 2 + 3 × (8 + 53 ÷ 1)= <u>185</u>

Hope this helped- have a good day bro cya)
