Most states and Canadian provinces have government-sponsored lotteries. Here is a simple lottery wager, from the Tri-State Pick 3 game that New Hampshire shares with Maine and Vermont. You choose a three-digit number; the state chooses a three-digit winning number at random and pays you $500 if your number is chosen. Because there are 1000 three-digit numbers, you have probability 1/1000 of winning. Taking X to be the amount your ticket pays you, the probability distribution of X is Payoff X Probability: $0.00 0.999 What is your average payoff from many tickets

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

For many(n) tickets, the average payoff is 0.5n, in which n is the number of tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/1000 chance of winning.

This means that there is an 1/1000 probability of you earning $500.

1 - 1/1000 = 999/1000 chance of losing.

In this case, you earn nothing.

What is your average payoff from many tickets

[tex]A = \frac{500*1}{1000} + \frac{0*999}{1000} = \frac{500}{1000} = 0.5[/tex]

Your average payoff from a ticket is 0.5. So for many(n) tickets, the average payoff is 0.5n, in which n is the number of tickets.

How many gallons of pure water should be added to 10 gallons of a solution containing 15% juice so that the remaining solution contains 5% juice?

Answers

Answer:

20 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

10 gallons of solution w/ 15% juice means 1.5 gal of juice

to make it into 5%, multiply 1.5 by 20

1.5 x 20 = 30

5% of 30 gallons is 1.5 since 10% of 30 is 3.

Since there was already 10 gallons, the # of gallons of pure water added should be 20 gal.

Polygon A has an area of 18 square feet and Polygon B has an area of 98 square feet. If the two polygons are similar, and Polygon B has a side length of 14 feet, find the corresponding side length in Polygon A.

Answers

Answer:

6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of side length in polygon A be represented by x. Since the two polygons are similar, then it can be deduced that;

Area scale factor = [tex](linear scale factor)^{2}[/tex]

linear scale factor = [tex]\sqrt{Area scale factor}[/tex]

Area scale factor = [tex]\frac{98}{18}[/tex]

So that,

linear scale factor = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{98}{18} }[/tex]

                              = 2.3333

The length of side of polygon A = [tex]\frac{14}{2.3333}[/tex]

                                       = 6.0085

Therefore, the corresponding side length of polygon A is 6 feet.

Using the provided measures determine the measure of angle K.

A)30.5°
B)34.90
C)41.2°
D)58.0°

Answers

Answer:

B. 34.90°

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️First, find GF using Trigonometric function:

Reference angle = 58°

Adjacent length = GF

Hypotenuse = 6 cm

Apply CAH, thus:

Cos 58 = Adj/Hyp

Cos 58 = GF/6

GF = 6*Cos 58

GF = 3.17951558 ≈ 3.18 cm

✔️Find angle K using the Sine Rule:

[tex] \frac{sin(K)}{GF} = \frac{sin(G)}{KF} [/tex]

Substitute

[tex] \frac{sin(K)}{3.18} = \frac{sin(64)}{5} [/tex]

Multiply both sides by 3.18

[tex] sin(K) = \frac{sin(64)}{5}*3.18 [/tex]

[tex] sin(K) = 0.5716 [/tex]

[tex] K = sin^{-1}(0.5716) [/tex]

K = 34.8618741° ≈ 34.90°
