Suppose there is a game of chance that you would like to play. It costs $3 to play one time. There are 100 $1 bills, 20 $5 bills, 3 $20 bills, and 1 $100 bill in a box. You may reach into a box without looking and select one bill. Is this a fair game? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. It is not a fair game.

2. The game is not fair because the probability of winning and the probability of losing are not equal.  In a fair game, the probability of winning is equal to the probability of losing.  In this game, the probability of losing is 0.81 or 81%, while the probability of winning is 19% (100 - 81).

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of playing the game one time = $3

Total number of bills in the box = 124 (100+20+3+1)

Chance of losing is represented by 100 of $1 bills = 100/124 = 0.81 or 81%

Chances of losing are represented by 20 of $5 bills, 3 of $20 bills, and 1 $100 bill = 0.19 or 19% (20/124 + 3/124 + 1/124).

3. The sales director a manufacturer decides to try out two different methods of distributing and seling a new video game. The game is sold to a retailer for a net profit of $9.90 on each game . The game is also sold at the factory outlet for a net profit of $10.99 on each game. If 500 games are sold by the outlet, many more would have to be sold by the retailer in order for the profit to be about equal

Answers

Answer:

The number of games that need to be sold to the retailer in order for the profit to be about equal is approximately 555 games

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The net profit at which each game is sold to a retailer = $9.90

The net profit at which each game is sold at the factory outlet  = $10.99

The number of units sold by the outlet = 500

The amount in profit from selling at the factory outlet = 500 × $10.99 = $5,495.00

The number of games that need to be sold to the retailer in order for the profit to be about equal is given as follows;

Let "x" represent the number of games that need to be sold to the retailer in order for the profit to be about equal

Therefore, we have;

x × $9.90/game = $5,495.00

x = $5,495.00/($9.90/game) = 555.[tex]\overline {05}[/tex] games ≈ 555 games

Therefore, the number of games that need to be sold to the retailer in order for the profit to be about equal = x ≈ 555 games.

Tyler's grandma purchased a savings bond for him when he was born. The bond was bought for $500.00. The value of the savings bond increases by 5% a year. Tyler's grandma wants Tyler to use it for college, so he is not allowed to touch it until he is 18.

How much money will Tyler have when he is 18

Answers

Answer: 950 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

5% of 500 dollars is 25 dollars, so since 5% is 25 dollars,  multiply that by how many years he can have it (18). So 18 * 25 = 450. 450 added to the starting 500 dollars is 950 dollars. Your welcome, I'm new so glad I could help.

Mark and Jen me at the beach yesterday July 31. Might go to the beach every third day in Django ceviche before three. How many times will they be at the beach on the same day over the next 30 days?

Answers

Answer:

The number times both Mark and Jen will be at the beach on the same day over the next 30 days is 10 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

Every third day implies that they both go the beach and then have a two day break, and then go the beach on the day after.

Put simply, every third day implies one day in three days.

Based on the above, the number times both Mark and Jen will be at the beach on the same day over the next 30 days can be calculated by dividing 30 by 3 as follows:

Number times both Mark and Jen will be at the beach = 30 / 3 = 10

Therefore, the number times both Mark and Jen will be at the beach on the same day over the next 30 days is 10 times.

Which statement about this product is true? 0.44×(−5 3/4)
It is equal to 0 because 0.44 rounded to the nearest whole number is 0, and 0 times any number is 0.


It is equal to −534 because 44 is equal to 1, and 1 times any number equals that number.


It is greater than −3 because 0.44×534 is less than 12×6.


It is less than −534 because multiplying by a number less than 1 gives a smaller number.

In a population of spiders, there is a protein that is coded in the
DNA to make venom. In a particular spider, there was a protein
variation due to a change in the genetic code. This protein
variation caused the spider's venom to be stronger to kill its prey.
This genetic variation was passed down to offspring and was
favored due to the amount of time shortened to eat its prey.
What will likely happen to this population of spiders?

Answers

eventually all of the offspring will have the genetic variation

Step-by-step explanation:

the variation was passed down to its offspring, and was favored, so it is now just part of its genetics, meaning all of the offspring from the original spiders offspring, will also have the genetic variation. hope this helps :)

In ΔCDE, \text{m}\angle C = (4x-16)^{\circ}m∠C=(4x−16) ∘ , \text{m}\angle D = (6x-1)^{\circ}m∠D=(6x−1) ∘ , and \text{m}\angle E = (4x-13)^{\circ}m∠E=(4x−13) ∘ . Find \text{m}\angle C.M∠C.

Answers

Answer:

m∠C = 44°

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔCDE,

m∠C=(4x−16) ∘

m∠D=(6x−1) ∘

m∠E=(4x−13) ∘ .

The sum of angles in a triangle = 180°

Step 1

We solve for x

m∠C + m∠D + m∠E

(4x−16)° + (6x−1)° + (4x−13)° = 180°

4x - 16 + 6x - 1 + 4x - 13 = 180°

4x + 6x + 4x -16 - 1 - 13 = 180°

14x - 30 = 180°

14x = 180+ 30

14x = 210

x = 210/14

x = 15

Step 2

Find m∠C

m∠C = (4x−16)°

m∠C = (4 × 15 - 16)°

m∠C = (60 - 16)°

m∠C = 44°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]a = vb + 6[/tex]

Make b the subject

[tex]a = vb + 6[/tex]

Subtract 6 from both sides

[tex]a -6= vb + 6-6[/tex]

[tex]a -6= vb[/tex]

Divide both sides by v

[tex]\frac{a -6}{v}= \frac{vb}{v}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{a -6}{v}= b[/tex]

What is triangle inequality?

"It states that the sum of any two sides must be greater than the third side."

For given question,

we have been given the measures 3.1, 4.8, and 10.2  

We need to check whether given measures can be the side lengths of a triangle.

First we check whether the given measures obey triangle inequality or not.

3.1 + 4.8 = 7.9

7.9 < 10.2

This means, the measures 3.1, 4.8, and 10.2 do not obey triangle inequality

Therefore,  the measures 3.1, 4.8, and 10.2 cannot be the side lengths of a triangle.
