Based on past experience, a building contractor sets the
probability of winning a contract at 0.10. The contract is
worth $75,000 and the cost to prepare the contract proposal
is $10000. What is the expected value of the contract
proposal?

A. $2500
B. $22600
C. $22600
D. $2500

Answers

Answer 1

Based on the cost of the contract and the probability to win it, the total expected value of the contract proposal is -$2500.

How to calculate the expected value of a contract proposal?

The general formula to calculate the expected value is:

Expected value: possibility of winnind the contract x the amount when winning - possibility of loing the contract x possible loss

Possibility of winning the contract= 0.10Possibility of losing the contract = 0.90Gain: $65000Loss: $10000

What is the expected value of the contract?Expected value: 0.10 x 65000 - 0.90 x 10000Expected value: 6500 - 9000Expected value: -$2500

what equation defines a line that intersects the graph of 6x-2y=10 exactly once?

Answers

Any line with a slope different than 3 will intercept the given line only once.

What equation defines a line that intersects the graph?

The answer will be any line that is not parallel (nor the same) to the given line.

Remember two lines are parallel if the lines have the same slope and different y-intercept

In this case, the given linear equation is:

6x - 2y = 10

y = 3x - 5

So the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is -5.

Then, any line with a slope different than 3 will intercept this line only once.

An example can be:

y = 314*x

solving separable differential equation DY over DX equals xy+3x-y-3/xy-2x+4y-8​

Answers

It looks like the differential equation is

[tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{xy + 3x - y - 3}{xy - 2x + 4y - 8}[/tex]

Factorize the right side by grouping.

[tex]xy + 3x - y - 3 = x (y + 3) - (y + 3) = (x - 1) (y + 3)[/tex]

[tex]xy - 2x + 4y - 8 = x (y - 2) + 4 (y - 2) = (x + 4) (y - 2)[/tex]

Now we can separate variables as

[tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{(x-1)(y+3)}{(x+4)(y-2)} \implies \dfrac{y-2}{y+3} \, dy = \dfrac{x-1}{x+4} \, dx[/tex]

Integrate both sides.

[tex]\displaystyle \int \frac{y-2}{y+3} \, dy = \int \frac{x-1}{x+4} \, dx[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \int \left(1 - \frac5{y+3}\right) \, dy = \int \left(1 - \frac5{x + 4}\right) \, dx[/tex]

[tex]\implies \boxed{y - 5 \ln|y + 3| = x - 5 \ln|x + 4| + C}[/tex]

You could go on to solve for [tex]y[/tex] explicitly as a function of [tex]x[/tex], but that involves a special function called the "product logarithm" or "Lambert W" function, which is probably beyond your scope.

In geometry, two figures are congruent if they are the same shape and size (they can also be a mirror image of each other).  If they are the same shape but a different size (e,g, one is an enlargement or reduction of the other), then they are similar.

All the given triangles have the same interior angles, so we need to find a triangle with the same side lengths as ΔABC.  

The only triangle that has the same side length as ΔABC is ΔMNO:
they both have bases of 8cm.

We can distribute the parenthesis and solve for x.

Solve9 - 2(x - 5) = x + 109 - 2x + 10 = x + 1019 - 10 = 3x9 = 3xx = 3

The value of x is 3.

We can plug it back in to check if it works.

Check9 - 2(x - 5) = x + 109 - 2(3 - 5) = 3 + 109 - 2(-2) = 3 + 109 + 4 = 3 + 1013 = 13

Correct!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

9 - 2(x - 5) = x + 10

Distribute

9 - 2x + 10 = x + 10

Subtract 10 to both sides

9 - 2x = x

Add 2x to both sides

9 = x + 2x

9 = 3x

Divide 3 to both sides

9/3 = 3x/3

3 = x

A rubber bouncy ball is dropped from a
height of 101.00 inches onto a hard flat
floor. After each bounce, the ball returns
to a height that is 19% less than the
previous maximum height. What is the
maximum height reached after the 5th
bounce?

Answers

Using a geometric sequence, it is found that the maximum height reached after the 5th bounce is of 43.48 feet.

What is a geometric sequence?

A geometric sequence is a sequence in which the result of the division of consecutive terms is always the same, called common ratio q.

The nth term of a geometric sequence is given by:

[tex]a_n = a_1q^{n-1}[/tex]

In which [tex]a_1[/tex] is the first term.

In this problem, the ball is dropped from a height of 101.00 inches onto a hard flat floor, and after each bounce, the height is 19% less, that is, 81% of the previous height, hence the first term and the common ratio are given by:

[tex]a_1 = 101, q = 0.81[/tex]

Then, the height of the nth bounce is given by:

[tex]a_n = 101(0.81)^{n-1}[/tex]

And the height of the 5th bounce is:

[tex]a_5 = 101(0.81)^{5-1} = 43.48[/tex]

The maximum height reached after the 5th bounce is of 43.48 feet.

A triangle is a three-edged polygon with three vertices. The measure of ∠C is 18°.

What is a triangle?

A triangle is a three-edged polygon with three vertices. It is a fundamental form in geometry. The sum of all the angles of a triangle is always equal to 180°.

Let the measure of ∠C be represented by x. Given the measure of ∠A= 2(∠B), while the measure of ∠B=3(∠C). Therefore, the measure of angles can be written as,

∠A = 2(∠B) = 2[3(∠C)] = 6x

∠B = 3x

∠C = x

Now, since the sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180°. Therefore,

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

6x + 3x + x = 180°

10x = 180°

x = 18°

Hence, the measure of ∠C is 18°.

Linear Function

A linear function can be represented by a line. The standard form for this equation is: ax+b , for example, y=2x+7. Where:

a= the slope;b=the constant term that represents the y-intercept.

The given equation is 16x + 4y = 12. For solving this question, you should replace the given values of x  for finding the values of y.

Thus,

For x= -2,  the value of y will be:

       16*(-2)+4y=12

      -32+4y=12

      4y=12+32

     4y=44
