The student council is hosting a drawing to raise money for scholarships. They are selling tickets for $5 each and will sell 600 tickets. There is one $3,000 grand prize, two $500 second prizes, and thirteen $40 third prizes. You just bought a ticket. Find the expected value for your profit. Round to the nearest cent.​

Answers

Answer 1

The expected value for your profit is 2.53.

The probability is the number that indicates the likelihood that an event will occur and is defined as the ratio of favorable outcomes to all outcomes.

Given,

You can solve for the necessary anticipated value below.

There will be 600 tickets available for purchase overall.

So,

$ 5 each and sell go tickets

one $3,000 grand prize = ( 1/600) × 3000

two $500 second prizes = (2/600) × 500

thirteen $40 third prizes = (13/600) × 40

Any discrete variable X's anticipated value is calculated as:

E(x) = ( 1/600) × 3000 + (2/600) × 500 + (13/600) × 40 + (600-1-2-13/600).0-5

E(x) = 2.53

The expected value for your profit is  2.53.

Anna is buying tomatoes and jalapenos to make salsa. Tomatoes cost $2.99​ per pound and jalapenos cost $1.33​ per pound. Anna spent $12.65​ buying tomatoes and jalapenos. The relationship between pounds of tomatoes, t​, pounds of jalapenos, j​, and the total cost is represented by the equation 2.99t+1.33j=12.65​. Write an equation that makes it easy to find the number of pounds of jalapenos if we know the number of pounds of tomatoes purchased.

Answers

The equation that makes it easy to find the number of pounds of jalapenos is j = (12.65​ - 2.99t)/1.33.

What is a linear equation?

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

It is given that:

Tomatoes cost $2.99​ per pound and jalapenos cost $1.33​ per pound. Anna spent $12.65​ buying tomatoes and jalapenos.

2.99t + 1.33j = 12.65​

Make the subject as j and solve the equation for j:

1.33j = 12.65​ - 2.99t

j = (12.65​ - 2.99t)/1.33

Thus, the equation that makes it easy to find the number of pounds of jalapenos is j = (12.65​ - 2.99t)/1.33.

Laci and leon are saving money to go to an amusement park. laci has $1 more than 4 times the amount of money leon has. together, they have $76. write an equation to determine how much money they have together. 4x 1 = 76 x 4x − 1 = 76 4x − 1 = 76 x 4x 1 = 76

Answers

Answer:

Leon has $15 and Laci has $61

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the amount Leon has.  So 4 times that plus $1 would be 4x+1.  Our equation is:

x + (4x+1) = 76

Combine like terms

5x + 1 = 76

Subtract 1 from both sides

5x = 75

Divide both sides by 5

x = 15.  This is Leon.  Laci is 4(15) +1, or 61.

On Elvis’s map, the area of a park is of thearea of the same park on Belinda’s map. Elvis’s map uses a 1/4 scale of 1 inch to 100 feet. What scale does Belinda’s map use?

Answers

Using proportions, it is found that Belinda's map uses a scale of 0.025 inches : 100 feet = 0.00025 inches : 1 feet.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures can be related using a rule of three, which derives from proportional relationships.

Due to this, relations between variables, either direct(when both increase or both decrease) or inverse proportional(when one increases and the other decreases, or vice versa), can be built to find the desired measures in the problem, or equations to find these measures, involving operations such as division and multiplication, as they involve unit rates.

Scale problems are solved using proportions. Elvis’s map uses a 1/4 scale of 1 inch to 100 feet, hence:

1 inch represents 100 feet in the entire scale.1/4 of that is that 1/4 = 0.25 inches represent 100 feet.

Belinda's map has the same area, hence they use the same scale, hence she uses a scale of 0.025 inches : 100 feet = 0.00025 inches : 1 feet.

The sample proportion, p-hat, of engineers who have master's degrees is   68.5% out of 200 engineers.

p-hat proportion:

In this proportion,  "p" denotes the probability of a certain event occurring or a certain parameter being true for a certain population, but when a population is large, it may be impractical or impossible to measure it directly. So, we have used the proportion for that cases.

The general form for calculating p-hat proportion is,

where

x  is the number of successes in the sample, and

y is the size of the sample.

Given,

In a random sample of 200 engineers, 137 have a master's degree.

Here we need to find the the sample proportion, p-hat, of engineers who have master's degrees

According to the question,

x = 137 (number of successes in the sample)

and y = 200 (size of the sample)

Now apply the value on the formula then we get,

[tex]\hat{p}=\frac{137}{200}[/tex]

So, the value of p-hat is

Use the trapezoidal rule, the midpoint rule, and simpson's rule to approximate the given integral with the specified value of n. (round your answers to six decimal places.) 4 6 ln(x) dx, 1 n = 6

Answers

The specified value of n for trapezoidal rule, the midpoint rule, and simpson's rule is 10.36 , 10.72 and 10.52.

Trapezoidal Rule: In Calculus, “Trapezoidal Rule” is one of the important integration rules. The name trapezoidal is because when the area under the curve is evaluated, then the total area is divided into small trapezoids instead of rectangles. This rule is used for approximating the definite integrals where it uses the linear approximations of the functions.

The trapezoidal rule is mostly used in the numerical analysis process. To evaluate the definite integrals, we can also use Riemann Sums, where we use small rectangles to evaluate the area under the curve.

Midpoint rule : In mathematics, the midpoint rule, also known as the midpoint Riemann sum or midpoint method, is a method of estimating the integral of a function or the area under a curve by dividing the area into rectangles of equal width. The midpoint rule formula is. The midpoint method formula works by summing the areas of each of the rectangles to produce an estimate for the area under a curve.

Simpson's Rule: Simpson's rule is used to find the value of a definite integral (that is of the form b∫ₐ f(x) dx) by approximating the area under the graph of the function f(x). While using the Riemann sum, we calculate the area under a curve (a definite integral) by dividing the area under the curve into rectangles whereas while using Simpson's rule, we evaluate the area under a curve is by dividing the total area into parabolas. Simpson's rule is also known as Simpson's 1/3 rule (which is pronounced as Simpson's one-third rule).

Now,

a=1,b=4,Δx =(b-a)/n =3/6 =1/2

f(x)=4√(ln(x))

trapezoidal rule:

∫4√(ln(x)) dx =(Δx /2)[f(1)+2*[f(1.5)+f(2)+f(2.5)+f(3)+f(3.5)]+f(4)]

∫4√(ln(x)) dx =((1/2) /2)[4√(ln(1))  +2*[4√(ln(1.5)) +4√(ln(2)) +4√(ln(2.5)) +4√(ln(3)) +4√(ln(3.5))] +4√(ln(4))]

∫4√(ln(x)) dx =10.365336

midpoint rule :

∫4√(ln(x)) dx =(Δx)[f(1.25)+f(1.75)+f(2.25)+f(2.75)+f(3.25)+f(3.75)]]

∫4√(ln(x)) dx =(1/2)[4√(ln(1.25))  +4√(ln(1.75)) +4√(ln(2.25)) +4√(ln(2.75)) +4√(ln(3.25)) +4√(ln(3.75)) ]

Assume $x is deposited into a savings account. Blank Bank offers an annual rate of r% for y years. Thank Bank offers a rate of ry% for 1 year. Which earns more interest?

Answers

Blank bank as well as Thank bank earn equal interest.

In this question, Blank Bank offers an annual rate of r% for y years.

and Thank Bank offers a rate of ry% for 1 year.

Assuming $x is deposited into a savings account, we need to determine which bank earn more interest.

We know that, Interest = principal × rate × time

Now we convert the rates to decimals and to do that we divide by 100.

So, the annual rate of the Blank bank = 0.0r

And the annual rate of the Thank Bank = 0.0ry

Using above formula of interest,

For Blank bank, the interest would be,

I_B = x × 0.0r × y

I_B = xy(0.0r)

I_B = 0.0rxy                         ....................(1)

here, we find the interest for 'y' years

And for the Thank Bank, the interest would be,

I_T = x × 0.0ry × 1

I_T = I_B = 0.0rxy              ....................(2)

From (1) and (2),

I_B = I_T

Both the banks earn equal interest.

Therefore, Blank bank as well as Thank bank earn equal interest.

A differential equation is a mathematical equation that relates some function with its derivatives.

Now,

To show y = e^xy is an implicit solution of the differential equation

an exterior angle of a triangle is 105 degree and one of its interior opposite angle is 35 degree less than the other .calculate the measure of both interior angle

Answers

The value of both the interior angles of the triangle is calculated as 70° and 35°.

What is the exterior angle property?

If a triangle side is formed, the exterior angle made is equal to the sum of a 2 interior opposite angles.

When an equivalent angle is chosen to take at each vertex of the triangle, this same exterior angles always add up to 360°.Each exterior angle equals 180° minus the interior angle. If the relating interior angle is given, this formula can be used. Exterior angle = Sum of opposite angles on the inside. When the exterior angle's distant interior opposite angles are given, this formula can be used to find it.

Now, as per the given question;

The exterior angle of a triangle is 105°.

Let one of the interior angle is 'x'.

Then, the other interior angle is 35 degree less; x - 35°.

By the exterior angle property.

Sum of interior angles = exterior angle

x + x - 35° = 105°

2x = 105° + 35°

2x = 140°

x = 70°

The other interior angle is; x - 35°

= 70° - 35°

= 35°

Therefore, the two interior angles of the triangles are estimated as 70° and 35°.

A three-digit number with the same digits is the sum of n natural numbers.

Let's say the sum of n natural numbers is bbb.

Then,

n( n + 1) / 2 = bbb

n( n + 1) / 2 = b( 111 )

n( n + 1) / 2 = b ( 3 × 37 )

n( n + 1) = 6b × 37
