Suppose we play the following game based on tosses of a fair coin. You pay me $10, and I agree to pay you $n 2 if heads comes up

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

In the long run, ou expect to lose $4 per game

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose we play the following game based on tosses of a fair coin. You pay me $10, and I agree to pay you $n^2 if heads comes up first on the nth toss.

Assuming X be the toss on which the first head appears.

then the geometric distribution of X is:

X $\sim$ geom(p = 1/2)

the probability function P can be computed as:

$P (X = n) = p(1-p)^{n-1}$

where

n = 1,2,3 ...

If I agree to pay you $n^2 if heads comes up first on the nth toss.

this implies that , you need to be paid $\sum \limits ^{n}_{i=1} n^2 P(X=n)$

$\sum \limits ^{n}_{i=1} n^2 P(X=n) = E(X^2)$

$\sum \limits ^{n}_{i=1} n^2 P(X=n) =Var (X) + [E(X)]^2$

$\sum \limits ^{n}_{i=1} n^2 P(X=n) = \dfrac{1-p}{p^2}+(\dfrac{1}{p})^2$ ∵ X $\sim$ geom(p = 1/2)

$\sum \limits ^{n}_{i=1} n^2 P(X=n) = \dfrac{1-p}{p^2}+\dfrac{1}{p^2}$

$\sum \limits ^{n}_{i=1} n^2 P(X=n) = \dfrac{1-p+1}{p^2}$

$\sum \limits ^{n}_{i=1} n^2 P(X=n) = \dfrac{2-p}{p^2}$

$\sum \limits ^{n}_{i=1} n^2 P(X=n) = \dfrac{2-\dfrac{1}{2}}{(\dfrac{1}{2})^2}$

$\sum \limits ^{n}_{i=1} n^2 P(X=n) =\dfrac{ \dfrac{4-1}{2} }{{\dfrac{1}{4}}}$

$\sum \limits ^{n}_{i=1} n^2 P(X=n) =\dfrac{ \dfrac{3}{2} }{{\dfrac{1}{4}}}$

$\sum \limits ^{n}_{i=1} n^2 P(X=n) =\dfrac{ 1.5}{{0.25}}$

$\sum \limits ^{n}_{i=1} n^2 P(X=n) =6$

Given that during the game play, You pay me $10 , the calculated expected loss = $10 - $6

= $4

∴

In the long run, you expect to lose $4 per game

What is perpendicular to y=1/3x+6 and passes through the point (2,-3)

defon

Answer:

y = -3x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular slope: -3

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

y+3= -3x + 6

y = -3x + 3

A radio station had 141 tickets to a concert. They gave away 2 times as many tickets to listeners as to employees. How many tick

erica [24]

Answer:

Option C: 47 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Tickets given to employees = 1 part

Tickets given to listeners = 2 parts

This means 141 tickets are totally divided into 3 parts so:

1 part = 141/3

1 part = 47

So now,

Tickets given to employees = 1 part = 47 tickets

Tickets given to listeners = 2 parts = 47 *2 tickets = 94 tickets

I hope it will help you!

Rewrite 10 + 12 using the GCF and factoring.

Airida [17]

Answer:

1st option

Step-by-step explanation:

10 + 12 ← factor out 2 ( the GCF of 10 and 12 ) from each term

= 2(5 + 6)

A nest of ants has been growing exponentially in such a way that its population, P, as a function of w weeks is given by P(w)=24

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

0.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A nest of ant is represented by the exponential growth function :

P(w)=24,000(1.063)^w

Where w = number of weeks

Recall :

Growth function is generally represented as :

P(t) = A(1 + r)^t

Where ; A is the initial population figure; r = growth rate and t = time

Hence, the growth rate per week of the function given is :

(1 + r) = 1.063

r = 1.063 - 1

r = 0.063

Number of days in a week = 7

Hence, growth rate per day = r /7

0.063 / 7

= 0.009

(0.009 * 100%) = 0.9%
