Consider the attached picture. It represents a vector, centered in the origin with angle 41.7 degrees, and a circumference with radius 25, centered in the origin.
As you can see, the horizontal and vertical components of the vector correspond to the lengths of segments OD and OC, respectively.
You might recognize this scenario from you trigonometry class: if the circle had radius 1, we would have
Since the circle has radius 25, we have to scale those coordinates:
Chance of winning $100 = 1/1000
<span>chance of winning $50 = 5/1000 = 1/200 </span>
<span>cost of ticket = -1 </span>
<span>E[x] = 100* 1/1000 + 50* 1/200 -1 </span>
<span>= 0.1 + 0.25 - 1 = -0.65
Hope this helps</span>
Answer:
179.5 - 180.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Time is a continuous variable. The minimum sleep time per night per subject here, is given as 1 minute.
Larger sleep times could be 1.08 minutes, 2.99 minutes, and other continuous/infinite values. Remember there are 60seconds in a minute and in-between seconds, there are milliseconds. So time is a continuous variable.
In this case though, our measurement of time is given in whole number units (integers). Our precision of measurement is 1 unit. We have an observed value of 180 minutes (the first subject's sleep time). The real limits of this value are 179.5 to 180.5
To find speed, divide total distance by total time:
Speed = 19.2 / 3 = 6.4 kilometers per hour
Find the water volume of the pool. The formula for a vertical cylinder is V = pi*r^2*h, which here is V = pi(13 ft)^2*(4 ft) = 676*pi cubic feet.
Now convert this 676 cu. ft. to gallons:
Mult (676*pi cu ft) by the conversion factor (7.48 gal) / (1 cu ft):
676*pi cu ft 7.48 gal
--------------- * ------------- = 5056*pi gallons (rounded down from 5056.48 pi)
1 1 cu ft
The cost of filling the pool will be
5056.48*pi gallons $3
--------------------------- * ------------- = $48 (to the nearest dollar)
1 1000 gal
