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

Which system of equations is represented by the graph?
Tom [10]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

y=x is a line that has slope 1 meaning it go ups (increases) from left to right.

So that puts us at choice A or C.

Both A or C differ by the numerator for the other function.

We can find the x-intercept for A and C by setting the numerator equal to 0 and solving for x.

Let's do that:

A:  -x-10=0                           C.  -x+10=0

     -x=10                                    -x=-10

      x=-10                                    x=10

A says x-intercept -10

C says x-intercept 10

Your graph intercepts the x-axis at 10 so the answer is C.

A cave explorer is at an elevation of negative 38 feet. The explorer starts moving at a rate of negative 12 feet per minute. Ide
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

-38 - 12x < 200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The original elevation = -38 feet,

Also, the explorer starts moving at a rate of negative 12 feet per minute.

So, the distance covered by explorer after x minutes = -12x feet,

Thus, the final elevation = original elevation +  distance covered by explorer

= -38 - 12x

According to the question,

final elevation < -200 feet

⇒ -38 - 12x < 200

Which is the required inequality.
