in a certain game, a fair die is rolled and a player gains 20 points if the die shows a 6. if the die does not show a 6, the player loses 3 points. if the die were to be rolled 100 times, what would be the expected total gain or loss for the player?

Answers

Answer 1

The expected gain or loss is an illustration of mean and expected values.

The expected total gain is 83 points

The given parameters are:

Addition of 20 points for rolling a 6Removal of 3 points for not rolling a 6

The probability of rolling a 6 in a fair die is 1/6.

The probability of not rolling a 6 in a fair die is 5/6.

So, the expected gain in each game is:

[tex]\mathbf{E(x) = 20 \times \frac 16 - 3 \times \frac 56}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{E(x) = \frac{20}6 - \frac{15}6}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]\mathbf{E(x) = \frac{5}6}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{E(x) = 0.83}[/tex]

The number of games is 100.

So, the expected gain is:

[tex]\mathbf{Gain = 100 \times 0.83}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Gain = 83}[/tex]

Hence, the expected total gain is 83 points

x2 + 6x + 9 = 2
A. x = 3 + 4/5
B. x= -3 +2
c. x= 3 - 5
D. =-3-

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 6x + 9 = 2

(x + 3)² = 2

x + 3 = ±sqrt(2)

x = -3 ± sqrt(2)

so, B and D are correct.

control :

(-3 + sqrt(2))² + 6(-3 + sqrt(2)) + 9 = 2

9 + 2 - 6sqrt(2) - 18 + 6sqrt(2) + 9 = 2

2 = 2

correct

(-3 - sqrt(2))² + 6(-3 - sqrt(2)) + 9 = 2

9 + 2 + 6sqrt(2) - 18 - 6sqrt(2) + 9 = 2

2 = 2

(3 + sqrt(2))² + 6(3 + sqrt(2)) + 9 = 2

9 + 2 + 6sqrt(2) + 18 + 6sqrt(2) + 9 = 2

Using a minimum of two sentences, describe how to write the function, f(x) = (x 2)2 - 3, in standard form.

Answers

The function is a quadratic function, and the standard form of a quadratic function is ax^2 + bx + c

The standard form of the function [tex]\mathbf{f(x) = (x - 2)^2 - 3}[/tex] is [tex]\mathbf{f(x) = x^2 - 4x + 1}[/tex]

The function is given as:

[tex]\mathbf{f(x) = (x - 2)^2 - 3}[/tex]

Factor out (x - 2)^2

[tex]\mathbf{f(x) = (x - 2)(x - 2) - 3}[/tex]

Expand the expression

[tex]\mathbf{f(x) = x^2 - 2x -2x + 4 - 3}[/tex]

Simplify the like terms i.e. add -2x and -2x

[tex]\mathbf{f(x) = x^2 - 4x + 4 - 3}[/tex]

Simplify the like terms i.e. add 4 and -3

[tex]\mathbf{f(x) = x^2 - 4x + 1}[/tex]

Hence, the standard form of the function [tex]\mathbf{f(x) = (x - 2)^2 - 3}[/tex] is [tex]\mathbf{f(x) = x^2 - 4x + 1}[/tex]

You kayak up a river at a rate of 28 feet every 30 seconds. You kayak 423 feet every 9 minutes on the way back down the river. How fast are you traveling up river? down river? (Be sure and change your seconds to minutes)

Up River:
ft:
min

Down River:
ft:
min

Answers

You traveled up the river at 56 feet a minute and down the river at 47 feet a minute.

The question is asking us to simply convert the speed traveled in feet per second to feet per minute. To do that, we say,

28 feet in 30 seconds, if we multiply both by two. We have 56 feet in 60 seconds. Also remember that 60 seconds make 1 minute. Thus, you must have kayaked up the river at 56 feet in a minute.

423 feet in 9 minutes, if we divide both by nine. We have 47 feet in a minute. This means that you kayaked 47 feet a minute down the river.

Find the least 2-digit whole number N so that the sum 2^9+2^4+N is a perfect square.

Answers

Answer:

N=48

Step-by-step explanation:

2^9+2^4+48=576

576 is a perfect square

The least value of N that makes [tex]2^9 + 2^4 + N[/tex] a perfect square is 48

The number is given as:

[tex]2^9 + 2^4 + N[/tex]

Evaluate the exponents

[tex]2^9 + 2^4 + N = 512 + 16 + N[/tex]

Add 512 and 16

[tex]2^9 + 2^4 + N = 528 + N[/tex]

The above equation means that:

The sum of 528 and N is greater than 537 (this is so because N is 2-digit i.e. the possible value of N starts from 10).The smallest perfect square greater than 537 is 576.

So, the smallest value of the equation is 576.

The equation becomes

[tex]528 + N = 576[/tex]

Subtract 528 from both sides

[tex]N = 576 - 528[/tex]

[tex]N = 48[/tex]

Hence, the least value of N is 48

-3.5 < 5

|-3.5| < |5|

============================================

Explanation:

Any negative number is always smaller than any positive number. So that's why -3.5 is smaller than 5 and where -3.5 < 5 comes from. It might help to set up a vertical number line. Stuff on top is larger than stuff down below.

---------

The vertical bars represent absolute value. The result of |-3.5| is 3.5 because this is the distance from -3.5 to 0 on the number line. Likewise, |5| = 5.

So that's how we get to |-3.5| < |5| which is effectively saying -3.5 is closer to zero than 5 is to zero.

What is the measure of angle xyz

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

LET:

∠XYW=Y

X,Y and W are the angles of triangle so:

X + Y + W=180

3x+11+Y+5x+1=180

Y=180-12-8x

Y=168-8x

Now ∠XYW and ∠XYZ are the angles of a straight line:

∠XYW+∠XYZ=180

168-8x+12x-20=180

4x+148=180

4x=180-148

4x=32

x=32/4

x=8

Now substitute value of x in Y:

∠(12x-20)=12(8)-20

∠Y=76

so if one of the side is 3, you multiply the above by 3

therefore, a=3√2

Second triangle

this is a 30-60-90 Triangle

so the sides are x-x√2-2x

for this triangle

x√2=6

x=6/√2 --> multiply by √2/√2 --> this gets ride of the √2 in the denominator

x=6√2/4 --> simplify
