Well lets say y = the amount of medals won. lets say x is the amount won by short people and z is the amount won by tall. we know that the total medals is the total medals won by short and tall so:
y = x + z
it says that tall people are 3.times more likely. this would mean they won three times more than short people. so
z = 3x.
so if we know what z equals, we can replace z with what it is equal to. so:
y = x + z
y = x + 3x
y = 4x
we know that 60 medals were won so
y = 4x
60 = 4x
x = 15
that is the amount won by short people
I got the answer Antonio had a head start of 3 meters.
Answer:
Expected pay winning $50= $0.585
Expected pay winning $25= $2.36
Expected pay for anything else= $-4.35
Expected returns=3.59
Expected value for one play= $(-1.41)
Do not play this game because you will lose $1.41
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability P(3 hearts) = (13/52)×(12/51)×(11/50) = 0.013
Probability P(3black)= (26/52)×(24/51)×(23/50) = 0.118
Probability P(drawing anything else)= 1 - 0.013 - 0.118= 0.869
Expected pay($50)= 0.013$(50-5)= $ 0.585
Expected pay($25)= 0.118(25-5)$ = $2.36
Expected pay for anything else= 0.869(0-5)$ =$(-4.347)
Expected value of one play=$ (0.585 + 2.353 -4.347) = -$1.41
c) Do not play the game.
Answer: THE GRAPH IS ATTACHED.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the lines are:
Solving for "y" from the first line, we get:
In order to graph them, we can find the x-intercepts and the y-intercepts.
For the line the x-intercepts is:
And the y-intercept is:
For the line 
the x-intercepts is:
And the y-intercept is:
Now we can graph both lines, as you can observe in the image attached (The symbols 
and 
indicates that the lines must be dashed).
By definition, the solution is the intersection region of all the solutions in the system of inequalities.
Answer: Would be 55% I hope this helps!
