50 cents because the prize is half the number of tickets and 50 is half of the dollar

Answer:

-50 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

The "Winnings" random variable has values -1 and 499

The associated probabilities are P(-1)= 999/1000; P(499)=1/1000

-----------------------------

Expected Value = -1(999/1000) + 499(1/1000) = -500/1000 = -50 cents

Starting at home, Luis traveled uphill to the gift store for 50 minutes at just 6 mph. He then traveled back home along the same
mario62 [17]

Average speed for the entire trip, both ways, is

                 (Total distance) divided by (total time) .

We don't know the distance from his house to the gift store,
and we don't know how long it took him to get back.
We'll need to calculate these.

-- On the trip TO the store, it took him 50 minutes, at 6 mph.
-- 50 minutes is 5/6 of an hour.
-- Traveling at 6 mph for 5/6 of an hour, he covered 5 miles.
-- The gift store is 5 miles from his house.
-- The total trip both ways was 10 miles.

-- On the way BACK home from the store, he moved at 12 mph.
-- Going 5 miles at 12 mph, it takes  (5/12 hour) = 25 minutes.

Now we have everything we need.

Distance:
         Going:       5 miles
         Returning:  5 miles
         Total         10 miles

Time:
         Going:        50 minutes
         Returning:   25 minutes
         Total:          75 minutes  =  1.25 hours  

         Average speed for the whole trip =

                       (total distance) / (total time)

                   =      (10 miles)  /  (1.25 hours)

                   =       (10 / 1.25)  miles/hours 

                   =          8 miles per hour

Use implicit differentiation to find an equation of the tangent line to the curve at the given point.
andrew11 [14]

Differentiating both sides of

x^2 + 2xy - y^2 + x = 20

with respect to x yields

2x + 2y + 2x \dfrac{dy}{dx} - 2y \dfrac{dy}{dx} + 1 = 0 \\\\ \implies (2x-2y) \dfrac{dy}{dx} = -1 - 2x - 2y \\\\ \implies \dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{1 + 2x + 2y}{2(y-x)}

At the point (3, 4) (so x=3 and y=4), the tangent line has slope

\dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{1 + 2\times3 + 2\times4}{2(4-3)} = \dfrac{15}2

Then the tangent line to (3, 4) has equation

y - 4 = \dfrac{15}2 (x - 3) \implies \boxed{y = \dfrac{15}2 x - \dfrac{37}2}
