One of the games at the carnival was Spin the Pointer, which uses a spinner like the one pictured here. A carnival ticket that costs $1.00 is required to play the game. For each $1.00 ticket, a player spins the pointer once and receives the amount of money indicated in the sector where the pointer lands on the wheel. The spinner has an equal probability of landing in each of the 8 sectors.

a. Let X represent the profit for the player from one play of the game. Complete the table below for the probability distribution of X.

X -$1.00 $0.00 $4.00
P(X)

b. Find the expected value of the profit for the player from one play of the game. You may handwrite your calculations.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a)

[tex]\begin{array}{cccc}{X} & {-\$1.00} & {\$0.00} & {\$4.00} \ \\ {P(X)} & {0.75} & {0.125} & {0.125} & \ \end{array}[/tex]

(b)

[tex]E(x) = -\$0.25[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for spinner

Solving (a): Complete the table

The amount paid is: $1

From the attached image, we have:

$0 = 6;      $1 = 1;     $5 = 1

To get the profit, we subtract $1 from the possible outcomes of the spinner.

So, we have:

-$1.00 = 6;      $0.00 = 1;     $4.00 = 1

The probability of each is then calculated as:

[tex]P(-\$1.00) = \frac{6}{8} = 0.75[/tex]

[tex]P(-\$0.00) = \frac{1}{8} = 0.12[/tex]

[tex]P(-\$4.00) = \frac{1}{8} = 0.12[/tex]

So, the complete table is:

[tex]\begin{array}{cccc}{X} & {-\$1.00} & {\$0.00} & {\$4.00} \ \\ {P(X)} & {0.75} & {0.125} & {0.125} & \ \end{array}[/tex]

Solving (b): The expected profit E(x)

This is calculated as:

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

[tex]E(x) = -1.00 * 0.75 + 0.00 * 0.125 + 4 * 0.125[/tex]

[tex]E(x) = -\$0.25[/tex]

(b) Which item has the best reduced price?
Cho can anyone help me ​

Answers

Answer:

(a)

[tex]\%Decrease= 12.5\%[/tex] --- TV

[tex]\%Decrease= 20\%[/tex] --- Laptop

(b) Laptop

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Normal                       Sales

[tex]TV = 2000[/tex]                  [tex]TV = 1750[/tex]

[tex]Laptop = 1800[/tex]             [tex]Laptop = 1440[/tex]

Solving (a): Percentage increase of decrease for both

Percentage change is calculated as:

[tex]\%Change = \frac{New - Old}{Old} * 100\%[/tex]

For TV

[tex]\%Change = \frac{1750 - 2000}{2000} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = \frac{-250}{2000} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = -0.125* 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = -12.5\%[/tex]

It is a decrease because it is negative

[tex]\%Decrease= 12.5\%[/tex]

For Laptop

[tex]\%Change = \frac{1440 - 1800}{1800} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = \frac{-360}{1800} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = -0.2* 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = -20\%[/tex]

It is a decrease because it is negative

[tex]\%Decrease= 20\%[/tex]

Solving (b):

Laptop has the best reduced price  because it has a larger percentage decrease

20% of what number is 30

Answers

Answer:

150

Step-by-step explanation:

20 percent of 150 is 30.

To check the answer... 150 times 0.2 is 30.

Answer:

150

20 percent of what number equals 30; Answer: 150.

Step-by-step explanation:

20% of what is 30?

Written using the formula: X = 30 ÷ 20%

Convert the percent to a decimal.

20% ÷ 100 = 0.2.

X = 30 ÷ 0.2.

X = 150.

So 20% of 150 is 30.

A golf instructor offers 1-hour private lessons from 2 pm to 6 pm every Saturday afternoon. His hourly rate is $60. The instructor takes appointments during the weekdays. Recently, the instructor receives quite a few late cancellations in Saturday morning. He can do nothing given the short notice. Therefore, the instructor institutes an overbooking policy. In case a customer cannot be served, the instructor will give a $40 certificate (he buys it from the golf club) for a free round of golf. The number of no-shows can be 1, 2, 3, or 4, each with a probability of 0.25. How many reservations should the instructor take

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

He is guaranteed to make $240 between 2 and 6 pm every Saturday afternoon. For each time that both of the 2 customers booked for the same hour does not cancel, he earns only $20. Considering that the probability of cancellation is 25%, if he books 8 customers for the 4 hour period on Saturday afternoon, he is making an extra $80 which bumps up his total earnings to $320. If he accepts any booking after 8, each is going to cost him $40. So the total number of reservations he should take is 8.

Answer:  1) 70°  2) x = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

1) If m∠1 = 70°,then m∠8 = 70°.

Because m∠8 is the vertical angle of m∠5, and m∠5 is the corresponding angle of m∠1, which means that m∠8 = m∠1 = 70°. And also m∠1 and m∠8 are alternate exterior angles, they equal to each other.

2) m∠4 = 70°, and m∠7 = 2x, then m∠4 + m∠7 = 180°,because they are consecutive interior angles.

m∠4 + m∠7 = 180°

70 + 2x = 180

2x = 110

x = 55

For all the recent strides we’ve made in the math world, like how a supercomputer finally solved the Sum of Three Cubes problem that puzzled mathematicians for 65 years, we’re forever crunching calculations in pursuit of deeper numerical knowledge. Some math problems have been challenging us for centuries, and while brain-busters like the ones that follow may seem impossible, someone is bound to solve ‘em eventually. Maybe.

For now, take a crack at the toughest math problems known to man, woman, and machine.

1. The Collatz Conjecture



DAVE LINKLETTER

Earlier this month, news broke of progress on this 82-year-old question, thanks to prolific mathematician Terence Tao. And while the story of Tao’s breakthrough is good news, the problem isn’t fully solved.

A refresher on the Collatz Conjecture: It’s all about that function f(n), shown above, which takes even numbers and cuts them in half, while odd numbers get tripled and then added to 1. Take any natural number, apply f, then apply f again and again. You eventually land on 1, for every number we’ve ever checked. The Conjecture is that this is true for all natural numbers.

Tao’s recent work is a near-solution to the Collatz Conjecture in some subtle ways. But his methods most likely can’t be adapted to yield a complete solution to the problem, as he subsequently explained. So we might be working on it for decades longer.

The Conjecture is in the math discipline known as Dynamical Systems, or the study of situations that change over time in semi-predictable ways. It looks like a simple, innocuous question, but that’s what makes it special. Why is such a basic question so hard to answer? It serves as a benchmark for our understanding; once we solve it, then we can proceed to much more complicated matters.

The study of dynamical systems could become more robust than anyone today could imagine. But we’ll need to solve the Collatz Conjecture for the subject to flourish.

y=0.8x+b, using point (2,-2) we can solve for b

our equation for this will be 15 x 6. this will give us our answers of 90. but because it is a triangle, we will have to divide by two. given is 45. our new equation will now be 135 + 45 given us our sum of 180 cm for the assumed area.
