Answer:
48 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Distance of rod from the wall = 45 cm
Distance of rod from the light = 15 cm
Length of rod = 12 cm
We can see that <DAM and <BAF are equal
Also, <DMA and <BFM are equal because they are corresponding angles
To find the length of the shadow, let's take the equation
Where.:
DM = ½ of length of the rod = ½*12 = 6
A.F = 15 + 45 = 60 cm
AM = 15 cm
Therefore,
Cross multiplying, we have:
15 * B.F = 60 * 6
15 * B.F = 360
BF = 24 cm
The shadow on the wall =
2 * BF
= 2 * 24
= 48 cm
The shadow on the wall is 48 cm
Answer:
infinity
Step-by-step explanation:
a) the expected value of this gamble in dollars is Infinity
i.e
expected value =
=
b)
When offered, most people say they would pay only less than $10 to play this game.
What are two reasons why people are willing to pay so much less than the expected value?
These people are ready to pay less than $10 to play this game due to the fact that people usually overlook the unlikely event when making decisions. In a bid to that logic, they gamble in order to double their amount of money and the probability that heads may never come is ignored by these people and they may hope for a likely event i.e a head every time they play the game.
Also, the expected value is so humongous that if and only if that the first head appears after a long series of tails which is very less certain to occur, because mostly people would think that on an average the length of a series of tails ( or heads) is somewhat near 10 or so, but definitely infinity.
