Answer:

(x, y) = (77/240, -3/10)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is convenient to write the equations in standard form.

Multiplying the first equation by 21 gives ...

21y = 24x -14

Multiplying the second equation by 8 gives ...

24x +9y = 5

Then the system of equations in standard form is ...

24x -21y = 14
24x +9y = 5

Subtracting the first from the second, we get ...

(24x +9y) -(24x -21y) = (5) -(14)

30y = -9

y = -9/30 = -3/10

Substituting this into the second equation, we have ...

24x +9(-3/10) = 5

24x = 7.7 . . . . . . . add 27/10

x = 7.7/24 = 77/240

The solution is (x, y) = (77/240, -3/10).

Answer:

Lose $0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 38 possible spots on the roulette wheel (numbers 1 to 36, 0 and 00).

If the player can choose four numbers on single $1 bet, his chances of winning (W) and losing (L) are as follows:

$P(W) = \frac{4}{38} \\P(L) = 1-P(W) = 1-\frac{4}{38} \\P(L) = \frac{34}{38}$

The expected value of the bet is given by the probability of winning multiplied by the payout ($8), minus the probability of losing multiplied by the bet cost ($1)

$EV=\frac{4}{38}*\$8 -\frac{34}{38}*\$1\\EV= -\$0.05$

On each bet, the player is expected to lose 5 cents ($0.05).
