I play a gambling game in which I will win different amounts of money with different likelihood's. Suppose that I win X dollars with a probability of P(X) (if C is negative I am losing money). The distribution is as follows: what is the appropriate value of P?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]p = 0.05[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for the distribution

Required

Find p

To find p, we make use of:

[tex]\sum P(x) = 1[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]0.50 + 0.25 + 0.13 + 0.07 + p = 1[/tex]

[tex]0.95 + p = 1[/tex]

Make p the subject

[tex]p = 1 - 0.95[/tex]

[tex]p = 0.05[/tex]

O A 38.5
OB 51.5
D103

Answers

Answer:

A. 38.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the angles <XWZ and <XYZ are congruent, <ZYW is just half of <XYZ, so you would just divide 77 in half to get your answer. It's a rhombus, so it works similarly to a square. If one side is congruent, the other is too.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

[tex]\tt{\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{x^2} + \dfrac{2}{y}}{\dfrac{5}{x} - \dfrac{6}{y^2}}}[/tex]

So, what we can do here is first take the Least Common Multiple here, on both Numerator and Denominator.

[tex]\tt{\dfrac{\dfrac{y + 2y^2 (1)}{x^2 y (2)}}{\dfrac{5y^2 - 6x (3) }{xy^2 (4)}}}[/tex]

[The number in brackets is for the next step :-

When we will further simplify it, we will multiply 1st with 4th and 2nd with 3rd.

[tex]\tt{\dfrac{y + 2y^2 \times xy^2 }{x^2 y \times 5y^2 - 6x }}[/tex]

[tex]\tt{\dfrac{y + 2y^2 \times y }{x \times 5y^2 - 6x }}[/tex] is the framed answer.

Answer:

[tex]\frac{y(y+2x^2)}{x(5y^2-6x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets do the numerator and denominator seperately:

Numerator:

1/x^2 + 2/y

Find common denominator and add these 2 fractions:

This is x^2y (I just multiplied the 2 denominators together’

Now, do what you have done to x^2 to make it x^2y, ie. multiplied by y, to the 1. This = y

And do what you have done to y to make it x^2y, ie. multiplied by x^2, to the 2. This = [tex]2^{2}[/tex]

Now, arrange all numbers we have found into the correct order in the fraction. This is:

[tex]\frac{y+2x^{2}}{x^{2} y}[/tex]

Denominator:

5/x - 6/y^2

Find the common denominator  and subtract these two fractions:

This is xy^2

Now, do what you have done to x to make it xy^2, ie. multiply by y^2, to the 5. This = 5y^2

And do what you have done to the y^2 to make it xy^2, ie. multiply by x, to the 6, this is = 6x

Now, arrange all the numbers we have found into the correct order in the fraction

[tex]\frac{5y^{2}-6x}{xy^2}[/tex]

Now that we have the numerator and the denominator, we can solve the equation.

The original question asks us to divide the 2 fractions, so:

[tex]\frac{y+2x^{2}}{x^{2} y}[/tex]  divided by [tex]\frac{5y^{2}-6x}{xy^2}[/tex]

For the division of fractions, you just have to multiply the inverse of the 2nd fraction by the first, so

[tex]\frac{y+2x^{2}}{x^{2} y}[/tex] x [tex]\frac{xy^2}{5y^2-6x}[/tex]

Use cross multiplication to simplify the above expression to:

[tex]\frac{y(y+2x^2)}{x(5y^2-6x}[/tex]

The Peak Library Book Club was doing a bake sale. Their goal was $550 for the entire week. The sale has lasted 4 days so far and each day they raised about $135.50. Will they make their goal by day 4? If not, how much do they need on day 5 to meet it?

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Since their goal was $550 for the entire week and the sale has lasted 4 days already and each day they raised about $135.50, the amount raised for the 4 days will be:

= $135.50 × 4

= $542.00

No, they won't make their goal by the 4th day.

The amount needed on the 5th day will be:

= $550 - $542

= $8

They'll need $8 on the 5th day.

Beth says 20-5x3 is 45, pat says 20-5x3 is 5. who is right?​

Answers

Answer:

Pat is right

Step-by-step explanation:

first multiply/divide then add/subtract,

Beth: 20 - 15 = 45 => 5 ≠ 45

Pat: 20 - 15 = 5 => 5 = 5

Answer:

Pat

Step-by-step explanation:

There is only one correct answer. To find it, you must follow the correct order of operations.

There is a subtraction and a multiplication. There are no parentheses.

The rule is that you must do the multiplication before the subtraction.

20 - 5 * 3 =

= 20 - 15

= 5

In order to get Beth's answer, you'd have to do the subtraction first. If there were parentheses like this: (20 - 5) * 3, then you'd do the subtraction first getting 15 * 3 which is 45, but the problem has no parentheses, so the correct answer is 5.

The correct answer is 5, and Pat is correct.

Answer:

  x = 2√2 ≈ 2.83

Step-by-step explanation:

The side length of an isosceles right triangle is 1/√2 times the hypotenuse length. If x is the side length, then ...

  x = 4/√2 = 4(√2)/2

  x = 2√2 ≈ 2.83

The difference between a snert and a snart is six. The sum of twice a snert and a snart is eighteen. How large is a snert and how large is a snart?​

Answers

Answer:

The measure of a snart is 2 and that of a snert is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the size of a snert by e and that of a snart by a.

Then e - a = 6.  This assumes that e > a.

2e + a = 18.  Substitute e - 6 for a, obtaining:

2e + (e - 6) = 18.

Simplifying, we get

2e + e - 6 = 18, or

3e = 24, and so

e = 8

Remembering that e - a = 6, we have 8 - a = 6.  Then a must be 2.

The measure of a snart is 2 and that of a snert is 8.

Find the length of a rectangular prism if the volume is 70 m3, the width is 2 m, and the height is 7 m.
5 m
8 m
7 m
6 m

Answers

Answer:

5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the volume formula, V = lwh

Plug in the volume, width, and height, then solve for l (the length)

V = lwh

70 = (l)(2)(7)

70 = 14l

5 = l

So, the length of the rectangular prism is 5 m

Answer:

Solution :-

We have

Volume = 70 m³

Width = 2 m

Height = 7 m

Length = Volume/Width × Height

Length = 70/2 × 7

Length = 70/14

Length = 5 m

Opposites sides are equal in a rectangle.

Answer:

The answer is: "It has to be a rectangle.  I measured the diagonals to be sure they were the same length."

Step-by-step explanation:

The other properties are true of a rectangle as well, but they could also be other shapes.

"It has to be a rectangle.  The opposite sides are the same length."

This could also be describing a rhombus or square.

"It has to be a rectangle because it is not a square."

This could also be a rhombus, trapezoid, or even kite.

"It has to be a rectangle.  I made sure that the two 8-foot boards are parallel and that the two 6-foot boards are parallel."

This can describe any parallelogram.  Just because the sides are congruent and parallel does not mean that there are four 90degree angles formed.

"It has to be a rectangle.  I measured the diagonals to be sure they were the same length."

This is a property of rectangle diagonals.  They will always be congruent.
