Answer:

18.75

Step-by-step explanation:

If you covert this into a mixed fraction it would be 75/4 (4*18 is 72 then add the 3 in the numerator) then divide, 75/4 = 18.75 (sorry if explanation is bad)

Solution:

<u>We know that:</u>

  • Given fraction: 18\frac{3}{4}

<em>Since the denominator is divisible by 100, we can solve this using an alternate way. </em>

<em>Step-1: Let's convert the mixed fraction into improper fraction. </em>

<u>Converting the mixed fraction to improper fraction:</u>

18\frac{3}{4} \\\\= \frac{(18 \times4) + 3}{4} \\\\= \frac{72 + 3}{4}  \\\\= \frac{75}{4}

<em>Step-2: Somehow, let's change the denominator to a 100.</em>

<u>Changing the denominator to a 100 using a proportion:</u>

\frac{75x}{4x} = \frac{75x}{100} \\\\ 4x = 100 \\\\ x = 25 \\\\ \bold{Check:} \\\\\frac{75 \times25}{4 \times 25} = \frac{75 \times 25}{100} \\\\ \frac{1875}{100} = \frac{1875}{100} \bold{(True)}

<em>Step-3: Adjust the decimal to the right place.</em>

<u>Adjusting the decimal to the right place:</u>

\frac{1875}{100} = 1875 \div 100 = 18.75

Since 100 has 2 zeros, the decimal shifted 2 places to the left.                                    

Thus, 18\frac{3}{4} in decimal form is 18.75.

Gambler is deciding whether or not to take a bet. she must pay $40 to take the bet, but if she wins, she willprofit$225.theproba
Vesnalui [34]
Expected value of the bet is
the sum of the products of value of outcome and its probability,
less the amount paid to place the bet.

Outcomes value probability
win            225    1/4
lose               0    3/4
cost of bet = 40

So expected value of bet
E[X]=225*(1/4)+0*(3/4)-40
=56.25-40
=16.25

This means that in the long run, gambler will win, since the expected value is positive.  (does NOT mean she will win in the next bet!)

Find an equation of the line perpendicular to the graph of 14x-7y=8 that passing through the point at (-2,5).
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

2x + 4y = 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

14x - 7y = 8

Convert to slope-intercept form:

-7y = -14x + 8

y = 2x - 8/7

The slope is 2 so the line perpendicular to it has a slope of -1/2, so we have:

y = 1/2x + c

This line passes through the point (-2, 5) so:

5 = -1/2* (-2) + c

5 = 1 + c

c = 5 - 1 = 4

So our equation is y = -1/2x + 4.

Convert to standard from

4y = -2x + 16

2x + 4y = 16.
