12.5%, every 500 years you take away half of the substance (50%) -> 25% -> 12.5%
you divide your number 3 times because 1500/500=3

Answer:

y=7

x=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

2(-3x - 7y )= 2(-28)

3(2x+ 3y)=3(7)

-6x - 14y = -56

6x + 9y = 21

Add the two equations

-1(0x - 5y)= -1(- 35)

5y = 35

Divide both sides by 5

y=7

Substitution

6x + 9(7) = 21

6x + 63 = 21

Subtract 63 from both sides

6x = -42

Divide both sides by 6

x= - 7

You roll a six sided die. You are given $8 if a 6 comes up, $2 if a 3, 4, 5 comes up, and
Dovator [93]

We want to get the expected value for the given experiment. We will see that the expected value is $2.33

For an experiment with outcomes {x₁, ..., xₙ} each one with probability {p₁, ..., pₙ} the expected value is defined as:

EV = x₁*p₁ + ... + xₙ*pₙ

Here we have 3 outcomes:

  • x₁ = winning $8
  • x₂ = winning $2
  • x₃ = winning $0.

For x₁ we need to roll a 6, this is a probability of 1 out of 6, then:

p₁ = 1/6

For x₂ we need to roll a 3, 4, or 5 (3 out of 6), then:

p₂ = 3/6

For x₃ we need to roll a 1 or a 2 (2 out of 6) so the probability is:

p₃ = 2/6

Then the expected value is:

EV = $8*(1/6) + $2*(3/6) + $0*(2/6) = $2.33
