Expected value of the bet is
the sum of the products of value of outcome and its probability,
less the amount paid to place the bet.
Outcomes value probability
win 225 1/4
lose 0 3/4
cost of bet = 40
So expected value of bet
E[X]=225*(1/4)+0*(3/4)-40
=56.25-40
=16.25
This means that in the long run, gambler will win, since the expected value is positive. (does NOT mean she will win in the next bet!)
For this case we have the following statement:
<em>"You have 2 meters of fabric and you cut 85% to make curtains, 50% of the rest to make the strips that hold it. How many centimeters of fabric were left?"</em>
So, we have:
2 meters ---------> 100%
x ----------------------> 85%
Where "x" represents the amount of fabric meters equivalent to 85%.

Thus, 1.7 meters of fabric were used to make curtains.
There are 0.3 meters of fabric left, of which half (50%) is used to make the strips that hold the curtain. That is to say:

Thus, 0.15 meters of fabric remain.

Thus, 15 cm of fabric remain
Answer;
15 cm

- You'll have to know : Mid-point theorem states that A straight line segment joining the mid-points of any two triangle is parallel to the third side and it is equal to half of the length of the third side.
- We're provided : XY = p , WZ = p - 30 & we're asked to find out the value of WZ. For that , firstly we have to find out the value of p.

- Set up an equation & solve for p :
