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:
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
Probability of winning:
Desired outcomes:
The 6 correct numbers, so 
Total outcomes:
6 numbers from a set of 21. So
Probability:
Expected value
probability of earning 40,000.
probability of losing 1. So
The expected value of this game is -$0.26.
5 is the y intercept.
-Always the number without the variable.
So the probability is the number of favorable outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes. This means that the favorable outcomes are 7/9, and the unfavorable outcomes are 2/9. The odds against the event are the unfavorable outcomes. Therefore the odds against the event is 2/9, or 0.2 repeating. Hope this helps.

Angle Z is also 33. X and Z are equivalent angle therefore it has to be 33 as well.
Answer:
x = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
.20x + .68(120 - x) = .54(120) (Distribute .68 to 120 and -x)
.20x + 81.6 - .68x = .54(120) (multiply .54 and 120)
.20x + 81.6 - .68x = 69.6 ( add .20x and -.68x)
-.48x + 81.6 = 69.6 ( subtract 81.6 on each side)
-.48x = -12 (divide -12 by -.48)
x = 25
