The object of a popular carnival game is to roll a ball up an incline into regions with different
values. The probability that Angus will get 100 points in a roll is 40%, 200 points is 35%, and
300 points is 25%. Find the expected value, E(X), of a roll.

O 200
O 400
O 150

Answers

Answer 1

The expected value, E(x) of the given observation is 185

The expected value is the mean of the overall observed value or random value. In other words, it is the average of the observed values.

The given parameters can be represented as:

[tex]\begin{array}{cccc}x & {100} & {200} & {300} \ \\ P(x) & {40\%} & {35\%} & {25\%} \ \end{array}[/tex]

The following formula calculates the expected value:

[tex]E(x) =\sum x * P(x)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]E(x) = 100 * 40\% + 200 * 35\% + 300 * 25\%[/tex]

[tex]E(x) = 40 + 70 + 75[/tex]

[tex]E(x) = 185[/tex]

A scientist has acid solutions with concentrations of 4% and 15%. He wants to mix some of each solution to get 44 milliliters of solution with a 12% concentration. How many milliliters of each solution does he need to mix together?​

Answers

Let x and y be the amounts (in mL) of the 4% and 15% solutions, respectively, that the scientist needs to use.

He wants to end up with a 44 mL solution, so

x + y = 44 mL

Each milliliter of 4% solution contains 0.04 mL of acid, while each mL of 15% contains 0.15 mL of acid. The resulting solution should have a concentration of 12%, so that each mL of it contains 0.12 mL of acid. Then the solution will contain

0.04x + 0.15y = 0.12 × (44 mL) = 5.28 mL

of acid.

Solve for x and y. In the first equation, we have y = 44 mL - x, and substituting into the second equation gives

0.04x + 0.15 (44 mL - x) = 5.28 mL

0.04x + 6.6 mL - 0.15x = 5.28 mL

1.32 mL = 0.19x

x ≈ 6.95 mL

==>   y ≈ 37.05 mL

Is this sequence arithmetic or geometric? How do you know?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\sum_{n = 1} 2*(-5)^{n-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

An arithmetic sequence is of the form:

[tex]A_n = A_{n-1} + d[/tex]

While a geometric sequence is of the form:

[tex]A_n = A_{n-1}*r[/tex]

notice that first, we have a change of sign in our sequence, so we already can discard the arithmetic sequence.

In fact, the pattern is kinda easy to see.

The first term is:

A₁ = 2

the second term is:

A₂ = -10

notice that:

A₂/A₍ = r = -10/2 = -5

The third term is:

A₃ = 50

the quotient between the third term and the second term is:

A₃/A₂ = 50/-10 = -5

Whit this we can already conclude that the n-th term of our sequence will be:

[tex]A_n = A_{n-1}*(-5)[/tex]

Then the summation will be something like:

[tex]\sum_{n = 1} A_n = A_1 + A_2 + A_3 + ... = 2 - 10 + 50 - ...[/tex]

We can write:

[tex]A_n = A_{n-1}*(-5) = (A_{n-2}*(-5))*(-5)) = A_1*(-5)^{n-1} = 2*(-5)^{n-1}[/tex]

Then the summation is just:

[tex]\sum_{n = 1} 2*(-5)^{n-1}[/tex]

A canoeist traveling with the current traveled the 24 miles between two riverside campsites in 2 hours. The return trip against the current took 3 hours. Find the speed of the canoeist in still water and the speed of the current, both in miles per hour.

Answers

Answer:

Speed of canoiest is 10 miles/hour.

Speed of current is 2 miles/hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of canoiest is v and the speed of current is u.

distance = speed x time

24 = (v + u ) x 2

v + u = 12 ..... (1)

Now

24 = (v- u) x 3

v - u = 8 .... (2)

By solving (1) and (2)

2 v = 20

v = 10 miles/hour

u = 2 miles/hour

A. 9n + 27
B. 27 – 9n
C. 9n = 27 - 1
D. 9n = 27

Answers

Answer:

D. 9n = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

If we need one adult for every 9 students, we can represent that as 9n:

if n is the number of adults.

Because we have 27 students, the equation 9n = 27 works.

A better way of formatting the equation is:

n = 27/9

Because it directly shows what the number of adults is, but with some reformatting, it is clearly the same equation.

I think it would be d

Answer: [tex]y^\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so when taking roots the number in the little corner at the left of the radical sign (if there is one) is the root you take. It could be the 4th root, 6th root, or the x root. You don't have to use the radical sign though, you can use an exponent to write it. All you have to do is take the reciprocal of the number to find what to write for the exponent. So for those examples it would be [tex]\frac{1}{4}, \frac{1}{6} ,\frac{1}{x}[/tex]. The number in the top left of the radical sign is 8 so the answer would be [tex]y^\frac{1}{8}[/tex]
