Answer:

b= -3

b=3/2=1.500

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1 . b • (2b + 3) -  9  = 0

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -18  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   3 .

     -18    +    1    =    -17  

     -9    +    2    =    -7  

     -6    +    3    =    -3  

     -3    +    6    =    3

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -3  and  6  

                    2b2 - 3b + 6b - 9

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                   b • (2b-3)

             Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                   3 • (2b-3)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

                   (b+3)  •  (2b-3)

A card is drawn at random from a standard deck of playing cards (no jokers). If the card is a spade, the player wins $7; if it i
Akimi4 [234]

The expected value of the game is the mean value of the game

The expected value of the game is $1

<h3>How to determine the expected value?</h3>

There are 13 spades in a deck of card of 52

So, the probability of selecting a spade is:

P(Spade) = 13/52

Simplify

P(Spade) = 1/4

Winning = $7

The probability of not selecting a spade is:

P(Not spade) = 1 - 1/4

Simplify

P(Not spade) = 3/4

Lose = $1

The expected value of the game is:

E(x) = \sum x * P(x)

This gives

E(x) = \frac 14 * 7 - 1 * \frac34

Simplify

E(x) = \frac 74 - \frac34

Evaluate

E(x) = 1

Hence, the expected value of the game is $1

It's D, because the mean doesn't matter as much if it's only taken in a small variability. The mean was selected from 25 random pages in the book, that is why it is right.
