Scottie = 30

Top of the lighthouse = 45 (30+15)

The boat = 0

The fish = -10

10 + 30 = 40

dsp73

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that you and a friend play a game where you each toss a balanced coin.

If the upper faces on the coins are both tails, you win $1;

if the faces are both heads, you win $2;

if the coins do not match (one shows a head, the other a tail), you lose $1 (win (−$1)).

Let Y be the amount won

Then Y can take values as 1,2 and -1

$P(Y=1) =P(TT) = 0.25\\P(Y=2) = P(HH) = 0.25\\P(Y=-1) = P(HT)+P(TH) = 0.5$

The above is the probability distribution for Y.

Rachel has 24 red candies and Maya has 18 green candies. They want to arrange the candies in such a way that each row contains e

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer: 6 candies per row.

Step-by-step explanation:

The restrictions that we have are:

Each row has the same number of candies.

Each row has only one color of candy.

We want to find the largest possible rows.

We have 18 green candies and 24 red candies.

Now, to arrange them in rows of equal numbers, we should find a common factor between 18 and 24. (particularly, we want to find the largest common factor between 18 and 24).

Now, to find common factors we first take the smaller number, and we divide it by different numbers, starting by 2 (we want to divide by small numbers, so the result will be the largest factor)

18/2 = 9.

Now to see if 9 is also a factor of 24, we see if the quotient between 24 and 9 is a whole number.

24/9 = 2.66

This is not a whole number, so 9 is not a common factor.

Now we divide by the next number, 3.

18/3 = 6.

24/6 = 4.

So 6 is a common factor of 18 and 24.

Then each row will have 6 candy.

And we will have:

18/6 = 3 rows of green candy.

24/ = 4 rows of red candy.
