Answer:

Given that 1/3 of a box is 6 dollars, we can say that per dollar is 1/18 of a box. If you have 4 dollars, this would mean that you can buy 4/18 of a box to 2/9 of a box. Hope this answers your question. Have a great day ahead!

vodka [1.7K]

Solution:

we are given that

Darlene wrote this proof of the identity (x + y)2 - (x - y)2 = 4xy.

we have been asked to find

Which of the following is a justification for Step 3 of her proof?

Step 3 of her proof is

Step 3: (x^2 + xy + xy + y^2) - (x^2 - xy - xy + y^2) = (x^2 + 2xy + y2) - (x^2 - 2xy + y^2)

As we can observe inside each of the paranthesis only like terms have been added. It mean the required justification is

C. Combining like terms

At a high school, students can choose between three art electives, four history electives, and five computer electives. Each stu
dangina [55]
If one is to choose among given choices and the order is not important, we use the concept of combination. First, we calculate for the sample space or number available since there is a total number of 12 electives and a student may choose 2 out of them.                           
S = 12C2
That is "the sample space is equal to combination of 12 taken 2". The answer to this is equal to 66. 

Next, we determine the number of outcomes. The equation will be,
                        O = (5C1) x (3C1) 
That is "outcome is equal to combination of 5 taken 1 times combination of 3 taken 1". This is equal to 15. The probability is equal to,
                        P = O/S

Substituting,
                        P = (15/66) = 0.227270
The answer to this item is the third choice.

Suppose you roll a pair of honest dice. If you roll a total of 7 you win $22, if you roll a total of 11 you win $66, if you roll
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The expected payoff for this game is -$1.22.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a pair of honest dice is rolled.

Possible outcomes for a dice = 1,2,3,4,5,6

Two dices are rolled then the total number of outcomes = 6 × 6 = 36.

\{(1,1),(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(1,5),(1,6),(2,1),(2,2),(2,3),(2,4),(2,5),(2,6),\\(3,1),(3,2),(3,3),(3,4),(3,5),(3,6),(4,1),(4,2),(4,3),(4,4),(4,5),(4,6),\\(5,1),(5,2),(5,3),(5,4),(5,5),(5,6),(6,1),(6,2),(6,3),(6,4),(6,5),(6,6)\}

The possible ways of getting a total of 7,

{ (1,6), (2,5), (3,4), (4,3), (5,2), (6,1) }

Number of favorable outcomes = 7

Formula for probability:

Probability=\frac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

So, the possibility of getting a total of 7 = \frac{6}{36}=\frac{1}{6}

The possible ways of getting a total of 11,

{(5,6), (6,5)}

So, the probability of getting a total of 11 = \frac{2}{36} = \frac{1}{18}

Now, other possible rolls = 36 - 6 - 2 = 36 - 8 = 28,

So, the probability of getting the sum of numbers other than 7 or 11 = \frac{28}{36} = \frac{7}{9}

Since, for the sum of 7, $ 22 will earn, for the sum of 11, $ 66 will earn while for any other total loss is $11,

Hence, the expected value for this game is

\frac{1}{6}\times 22+\frac{1}{18}\times 66-\frac{7}{9}\times 11

\frac{11}{3}+\frac{11}{3}-\frac{77}{9}

\frac{22}{3}-\frac{77}{9}

\frac{66-77}{9}

-\frac{11}{9}

-1.22

Therefore the expected payoff for this game is -$1.22.

Solve the system using elimination. x + 2y = –6 3x + 8y = –20 (–4, –1) (–4, 4) (–1, –4) (3, 1)
Orlov [11]

x + 2y =  - 6 >  >  > 3x =  - 18 - 6y
- 18 - 6y + 8y =  - 20 >  >  > 2y =  - 2 >  > y =  - 1
so x=4
