Well you didn't post the expressions but let X be the amount of money for first place. This means X-50 would be the amount of second place because <span>each subsequent place after 1st wins $50 less than the previous place. Thirds, would be X-50-50 or X-100

Thus the total amount of money would be all of the values combined which is X+X-50+X-100=3X-150

We flip a fair coin five times. For every heads you pay me $1 and for every tails I pay you $1. Let X denote the my net winning
TEA [102]

Answer:

The probability mass of X is 0.03

Step-by-step explanation:

If we set the winning requirement of your heads and my tails then the occurring possibility of both is 1/2 or 0.5.

Hence let us make a graph and use the figures to calculate the all the probabilities of you getting a heads.

Where X represents the number of dollars won during the flip of the coin, probability of heads represent the chances of occurrence of the value and of winning the dollars.

The probability of winning start to drop as the winning amount increases.

       

     X                          0     1               2     3       4      5

Probability of Heads  0 0.50 0.25 0.13    0.06 0.03

At a particular restaurant, each onion ring has 45 calories and each slider has 325 calories. A combination meal with onion ring
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

There were 6 onion rings and 2 slider in the combination meal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of onion rings and y be the number of slider.

Calories in one onion ring = 45 calories

Calories in one slider = 325 calories

Total number of calories = 920

Thus, we can write the equation:

45x + 325y = 920

There are 3 times as many onion rings as the sliders.

Thus, we can write the equation:

x = 3y

Solving the two equation by substitution method, we get,

45(3y) + 325y = 920\\460y = 920\\y = 2\\x = 3y = 3(2) = 6

Thus, there were 6 onion rings and 2 slider in the combination meal.

A) Find a recurrence relation for the number of bit strings of length n that contain a pair of consecutive 0s.
Fed [463]

Answer:

A) a_{n} = a_{n-1} + a_{n-2} + 2^{n-2}

B) a_{0} = a_{1} = 0

C)   for n = 2

  a_{2} = 1

for n = 3

 a_{3} = 3

for n = 4

a_{4} = 8

for n = 5

a_{5} = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

A) A recurrence relation for the number of bit strings of length n that contain a  pair of consecutive Os can be represented below

if a string (n ) ends with 00 for n-2 positions there are a pair of  consecutive Os therefore there will be : 2^{n-2} strings

therefore for n ≥ 2

The recurrence relation for the number of bit strings of length 'n' that contains consecutive Os

a_{n} = a_{n-1} + a_{n-2} + 2^{n-2}

b ) The initial conditions

The initial conditions are : a_{0} = a_{1} = 0

C) The number of bit strings of length seven containing two consecutive 0s

here we apply the re occurrence relation and the initial conditions

a_{n} = a_{n-1} + a_{n-2} + 2^{n-2}

for n = 2

  a_{2} = 1

for n = 3

 a_{3} = 3

for n = 4

a_{4} = 8

for n = 5

a_{5} = 19
