Consider a game in which players draw playing cards one at a time from a standard 52-card deck. If a player draws a face card (a jack, a queen, or a king), the player is awarded 16 points. Any other card drawn earns the player 3 points. What is the expected value of drawing a card in this game on the first turn?
A. 3.7 points B. 6 points C. 6.3 points D. 9.5 points

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Expected value of drawing a card in this game on the first turn = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Consider a game in which players draw playing cards one at a time from a standard 52-card deck. If a player draws a face card (a jack, a queen, or a king), the player is awarded 16 points. Any other card drawn earns the player 3 points.

To find -  What is the expected value of drawing a card in this game on the first turn?

Formula used -

Expected value, E[x] = ∑ x p(x)

where p(x) is the probability

Proof -

Total cards in a standard deck = 52

Total face cards = 12 (a jack, a queen, or a king)

Other cards = 40

Now,

Probability of getting a face card = [tex]\frac{12}{52}[/tex]

Probability of getting a other card = [tex]\frac{40}{52}[/tex]

So,

Expected value, E[x] = ∑ x p(x)

                                  = (16)([tex]\frac{12}{52}[/tex]) + (3)([tex]\frac{40}{52}[/tex])

                                  = [tex]\frac{192}{52} + \frac{120}{52}[/tex]

                                  = [tex]\frac{312}{52}[/tex]

                                  = 6

∴ we get

Expected value of drawing a card in this game on the first turn = 6

So,

The correct option is - B. 6 points

Find the length side of W

Answers

Answer:

17.99

Step-by-step explanation:

Trig Ratios:

Sin = Opposite over Hypotenuse

Cos = Adjacent over Hypotenuse

Tan = Opposite over Tangent

We can use trig ratio sine as we are given an angle ( 40° )and the hypotenuse (28) and we need to find its opposite side (w)

Recall that sin = opposite over hypotenuse

That being said we want to create an equation to solve for w

[tex]sin(40)=\frac{w}{28}[/tex]

Now we solve for w

Step 1 multiply each side by 28

[tex]\frac{w}{28} *28=w\\sin(40)*28=28sin(20) = 17.99[/tex]

we're left with w = 17.99

What is the combined area of the two bases of the following cylinder
The diameter is 12cm and the height is 15cm
A. 452.16cm^2
B. 904.32cm^2
C. 113.04cm^2
D. 226.08cm^2

Answers

D. 226.08cm^2

Since we are finding the combined area of the two bases of the cylinder, we are adding the area of the first base with the second base. The formula for the base of a cylinder is pi x r^2, since it is a circle. Since the bases are the same, we can rewrite this as 2pi x r^2.

Since the diameter is 12cm and r = 1/2 diameter, r = 6cm.

Thus, A = 2(3.1415)(6)^2 = 226.08cm^2

Ms. Barnsley separates her class into two groups. She gives each student the same 25-question math quiz. Group A uses a calculator, while Group B does not. The table shows the completion times, in minutes, of students in each group.



Which statement is true about the distributions of completion times?

The students in Group A tended to complete the quiz in less time.
The median of Group A is greater than the median of Group B.
The means of both groups are about the same.
The standard deviation of Group B is less than the standard deviation of Group A.

Answers

Answer:

The median of Group A is greater than the median of Group B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\begin{array}{cccccccccc}{Group\ A} & 4.5 & 4.8 & 4.6 & 5.0 & 4.8 & 4.4 & 4.7 & 5.2 & 3.9 \ \\ {Group\ B} & 5.5 & 4.9 & 4.0 & 4.2 & 4.8 & 4.1 & 3.5 & 4.6 & 4.3 \ \end{array}[/tex]

Required

Which of the options is true

(a) Group A complete in less time

To do this, we calculate the average of both using:

[tex]\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]

Where

[tex]n = 9[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\bar x_A = \frac{4.5 + 4.8 + 4.6 + 5.0 + 4.8 + 4.4 + 4.7 + 5.2 + 3.9}{9}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_A = \frac{41.9}{9}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_A = 4.66[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_B =\frac{5.5 + 4.9 + 4.0 + 4.2 + 4.8 + 4.1 + 3.5 + 4.6 + 4.3}{9}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_B =\frac{39.9}{9}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_B =4.43[/tex]

The average time of Group A is higher than that of B, this means that Group A spend more time, on average.

(b) Group A has a greater median

First, we sort the given data in ascending order

[tex]\begin{array}{cccccccccc}{Group\ A} & 3.9 & 4.4 & 4.5 & 4.6 & 4.7 & 4.8 & 4.8 & 5.0 & 5.2 \ \\ {Group\ B} & 3.5 & 4.0 & 4.1 & 4.2 & 4.3 & 4.6 & 4.8 & 4.9 & 5.5 \ \end{array}[/tex]

The median is then calculated using:

[tex]Median = \frac{n + 1}{2}th[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]Median = \frac{9 + 1}{2}th[/tex]

[tex]Median = \frac{10}{2}th[/tex]

[tex]Median = 5th[/tex]

The median is the fifth item for both groups.

So, we have:

[tex]A =4.7[/tex]

[tex]B =4.3[/tex]

4.7 is greater than 4.3

Hence, (b) is true

Since (b) is true and only one option is correct, then (c) and (d) are incorrect

For all values of x, f(x)=x-1 and g(x)=2x^2+3. Solve fg(x)=gf(x)

Answers

Answer:

x=3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

f(x) = x-1

g(x) = 2x²+3

Evaluate composite functions:

f(g(x)) = f(2x²+3) = (2x²+3)-1 = 2x²+2

g(f(x)) = g(x-1) = 2(x-1)²+3 = 2(x²-2x+1)+3 = 2x²-4x+2+3 = 2x²-4x+5

Set expressions equal to each other and solve for x:

2x²+2 = 2x²-4x+5

2 = -4x+5

-3 = -4x

3/4 = x

x = 3/4

Therefore, the value of x=3/4 satisfies both composite functions

Can somebody help me with writing a real-life problem on this subject Finding angle measures of a right or isosceles triangle given angles with variables thank you?

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for illustration

(a) Right triangle

The sum of [tex]angles[/tex] in a [tex]right[/tex] [tex]triangle[/tex]is:

[tex]x + y + 90 = 180[/tex]

Subtract 90 from bot sides

[tex]x + y = 90[/tex]

Make x the subject

[tex]x = 90 - y[/tex]

Make y the subject

[tex]y = 90 - x[/tex]

This implies that, subtract the known angle from 90 to get the unknown angle.

Assume [tex]x = 40[/tex]

We make use of: [tex]y = 90 - x[/tex]

[tex]y = 90 - 40 = 50[/tex]

(b) Isosceles triangle

The sum of angles in an isosceles triangle is:

[tex]x + y + y = 180[/tex] ---- y appear twice because the base angles are equal

[tex]x + 2y = 180[/tex]

Make x the subject

[tex]x = 180 - 2y[/tex]

Make y the subject

[tex]y = \frac{180 - x}{2}[/tex]

Assume [tex]x = 40[/tex], we make use of:

[tex]y = \frac{180 - x}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{180 - 40}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{140}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y = 70[/tex]

Assume [tex]y = 70[/tex], we make use of:

[tex]x = 180 - 2y[/tex]

[tex]x = 180 - 2 * 70[/tex]

[tex]x = 180 - 140[/tex]

[tex]x = 40[/tex]

Additional comment

In several cases, there are variables and constants on both sides of the equal sign. The solution method is to identify the smallest variable coefficient, and add the opposite of that term. Also added at the same time is the opposite of the constant term on the other side of the equal sign. The net effect is to put the variable on one side and the constant on the other side. Then the equation is divided by the coefficient of the variable.

For example, in the first equation, -2x is the variable term with the smallest coefficient. -3 is the constant on the other side of the equation. To get from the initial expression to the next, we add 2x+3 to both sides of the equation.
