You’re at a party with 199 other guests when robbers break in and announce that they are going to rob one of you. they put 199 blank pieces of paper in a hat, plus one marked "you lose." each guest must draw, and the person who draws "you lose" will get robbed. the robbers o↵er you the option of drawing first, last, or at any time in between. when would you take your turn?

First

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the probability that the first person pick the paper marked "you lose" is 1/200, which is smaller than the probability of who draws later.

first option

a function is a relation in which an input is paired with exactly one output.

so, let's find the right answer.

in our first option, our inputs are january, february, and march. the outputs are 30, 28, and 25. each input has it's own output. this is correct!

our second option we know is incorrect, because ms. valverade has two outputs, dogs and cats. this is not a function.

our third option is incorrect as well. the yellow square has two ouputs, the square and the triangle.

lastly, in our fourth option, we see the number 7 two times with a different output. therefore, this is not a function.

remember: each input must be paired with only one output!
