Answer: The expected value of this game is 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Give that
If it's black, you lose a point. If it's red, you gain a point.
And then you can stop at any time. But you should never stop when you are losing because that can guarantee 0 by drawing all the cards.
Assuming you should stop after three cards when you are +2.
The only question is whether to draw if you are +1 on the first draw.
If you draw red first, You have 1/3 chance of drawing red again and this will give you +2 points
1/3 chance of drawing two blacks and earn zero point, chance of drawing black-red and earn +1. This gives +1, so it doesn't matter whether you draw or not.
From the beginning, If you draw red (probability 1/2 you end +1. If you draw black and then draw two reds (probability 1/6 you end +1) Otherwise you break even with probability 1/3. Overall, the value is 2/3

Answer:
1390 cm^3
Step-by-step explanation:
9 x 7 x 10 = 630 cm^3 for the rectang prism top
area * 10 for the bottom
8 x ( 12 + 7)/2 * 10 = 760 cm^3 for the trap base
total = 1390 cm^3
Answer:
f(n) = 2 + 5n. This is an arithmetic sequence.
Step-by-step explanation:
f(1) = 7
f(2) = 7 + 5
f(3) = 7 + 5 + 5 = 7 +10
f(4) = 7 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 7 + 15
In general,
f(n) = 7 + 5(n -1 )
= 7 + 5n - 5
= 2 + 5n
We have the sequence 7, 12, 17, 22, 27 …
This is an arithmetic sequence, because it is a sequence of numbers in which the <em>common difference</em> between consecutive terms is 5.
