In the game of roulette, a player can place a $5 bet on the number 8 and have a StartFraction 1 Over 38 EndFraction
probability of winning. If the metal ball lands on 8, the player gets to keep the $5 paid to play the game and the player is awarded an additional $175. Otherwise, the player is awarded nothing and the casino takes the player's $5. Find the expected value E(x) to the player for one play of the game. If x is the gain to a player in a game of chance, then E(x) is usually negative. This value gives the average amount per game the player can expect to lose

hi

step-by-step explanation:

1 number

if we use a graphing calculator, there is only one such number that satisfies the conclusion of the mean value theorem, that is, a number such that

where the right-hand side is the average rate of change of f on the interval [0.5,0.75], which is the slope of the secant line.

in the attached graph, the black line is the secant line which has its slope as the average rate of change of f on [0.5,0.75], while the orange line is the only tangent line to the graph of f in the interval that satisfies the mvt conclusion.

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
