Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given information,
Considering both cases when p = 0.5 and when p ≠ 0.5
the probability that the gambler will quit an overall winner is:
where ;
N.k = n and k = m
Hence, the probability changes to:
is p ≠ 0.5 and k/N =
is P = 0.5
Answer:
x = 2root(22)
see image.
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle shown is one big triangle cut into two more smaller triangles: one medium-sized and one smaller.
ALL THREE TRIANGLES ARE SIMILAR BY AA.
Set the two smaller triangles up so you can see the corresponding sides. x is the short leg in one triangle and it is the long leg in the smallest triangle. Set up a proportion.
22/x = x/4
crossmultiply
x^2 = 22•4
x^2 = 88
square root both sides.
x = sqroot(88)
x = 2sqroot(22)
see image.
