The expected value is 12.44

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value can be calculated as:

EV = ∑xₙ*pₙ

Where xₙ is the n-th outcome. For the case of the spinner we have 3 possible outcomes:

x₁ = 8

x₂ = 6

x₃ = 24

And pₙ is the probability of the n-th event.

For the case of the spinner, the probability of each section will be equal to the quotient between the degrees of each arc, and the total number of degrees in a circle (360°).

First, we can see that for outcome = 8, the angle is a right angle, then it is equal to 90°, then the probability of this event will be:

p₁ = 90°/360° = 0.25

For outcome = 24, we have an angle of 120°, then the probability for this event is:

p₃ = (120°/360°) = 0.33

And the angle for the third arc must be such that:

90° + 120° + A = 360°

then:

A = 360° - 90° - 120° = 150°

Then the probability for the outcome = 6 is:

p₂ = (150°/360°) = 0.42

Now we can find the expected value as:

EV = (8*0.25 + 6*0.42 + 24*0.33) = 12.44

answer: -0.5 would be the most likley outcome

step-by-step explanation:

answer:

given the linear inequality :

add 2y to both sides we get;

simplify:

add 12 to both sides of an equation;

simplify:

divide both sides by 2 we get;

or

the related equation for the inequality equation [1] is;

y-intercepts defined as the graph crosses the y-axis.

substitute x =0 in [2] to solve for y;

y = 6

x-intercepts defined as the graph crosses the x-axis.

substitute value y = 0 to solve for x;

subtract 6 from both sides we get

multiply both sides by 2 we get;

or

x = -12

now, plot these point (0, 6) and (-12, 0) on graph as shown below and shade the graph below the solid line.
