Answer:
you should accept the $1,000 bill
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the information:
- $500 for rolling 1 or 2
- $400 for rolling 3
- lose $300 for rolling 4,5,6
P (rolling 1 or 2) = 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3
P (rolling a 3) = 1/6
P (rolling 4 or 5 or 6) = 3/6 = 1/2
Hence, the expected value for 1 time is:
E = (1/3)*500 + (1/6)*400 - (1/2)*300
E = $166 + $66 - $150
E = $82
Expected value is linear so if you roll the die 10 times, expected value is: 10*82 = $820
The expected value is $82, meaning you should accept the $1,000 bill
Answer:
38
Step-by-step explanation:
38.23 is closest to 28, because neither the .2 or .03 is high enough to round the last whole number up
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1 ) Y∝ 1 / X
Y = k / X
Y = 9 , X = -5
Putting the values in the relation above
9 = k / - 5
k = -45
Y = - 45 / X
Put Y = - 6
- 6 = - 45 / X
X = - 45 / -6
= 7.5
2 )
Luke and Nora can peel 12 carrots in 5 minutes
in 1 minute Luke and Nora can peel 12 / 5 carrot
in 1 minute Luke alone can peel 12/ 11 carrot .
In 1 minute Nora alone will peel (12 / 5 - 12/ 11 ) carrot
(12 / 5 - 12 / 11 )
= 2.4 - 1.1
= 1.3 carrot
In 1 minute Nora alone will peel 1.3 carrot
1.3 carrot in 1 minute
8 carrot in 8 / 1.3 minute
= 6.15 minutes.
In 1 minute Nora alone will peel 8 carrot in 6.15 minutes working alone.
