Answer:
b. 3t ≥ 36
Step-by-step explanation:
She gets $3 per three-pointer. The variable <em>t</em> stands for three-pointer. So in mathematical terms, it would be 3<em>t</em>.
She wants a minimum of 36 dollars, therefore the sign would be ≥. This means 3<em>t </em>has to be greater than or equal to 36.
So, 3<em>t</em> ≥ 36
<span>1) Find P(E1UE2)
E1 probability= 1/2</span>
<span>There are 26 red cards in a 52 card deck, so the probability of choosing a red card is = 26/52 = 1/2
E2 probability= 12/ 52 or 3/13</span>
<span>The face cards are: Jacks, Queens, and <span>Kings. There are four suits, so in each suit there are one jack, one queen and one king. The probability is 3 x 4= 12 divided by the total number of cards.
2)</span></span><span>the probability of drawing a blue ball on the first draw: 4 /10
</span>the probability of drawing a white ball on the second drawn: 6/9 (because there is less one ball from the previous draw).
the probability of the cases together is 4/15 ( 4 /10 x 6/9) <span>since they are independent cases.</span>
Answer:
-$13.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be a random variable of a count of player gain.
- We are told that if the die shows 3, the player wins $45.
- there is a charge of $9 to play the game
If he wins, he gains; 45 - 9 = $36
If he looses, he has a net gain which is a loss = -$9
Thus, the x-values are; (36, -9)
Probability of getting a 3 which is a win is P(X) = 1/6 since there are 6 numbers on the dice and probability of getting any other number is P(X) = 5/6
Thus;
E(X) = Σ(x•P(X)) = (1/6)(36) + (5/6)(-9)
E(X) = (1/6)(36 - (5 × 9))
E(X) = (1/6)(36 - 45)
E(X) = -9/6 = -3/2
E(X) = -3/2
This represents -3/2 of $9 = -(3/2) × 9 = - 27/2 = -$13.5
We'll use the slope-intercept form y = mx + b. Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
We know the slope, -1/5. Now the equation looks like y = (-1/5)m + b
To find the y-intercept, plug in the ordered pair that the question gave us into our equation and solve for b.
7 = (-1/5)(-3) + b
7 = 0.6 + b
6.4 = b
b = 6 2/5
So, the y-intercept will be at 6 2/5.
