Alottery costs $1 per ticket. the player selects a sincle letter from a to t and a single digit from 0 to 9. if both the letter and the digit match the letter and digit picked on that day, the player wins $250. what is the expected value of a lottery ticket/

Explanation:

The letter T is the 20th letter in the English alphabet. This means that there are 20 letters to pick from to go with the 10 single digit numbers to pick from. We have 20*10 = 200 different combinations (eg: one combination is K4).

Out of these 200 combinations, there is exactly one winning match.

The probability of winning is therefore P(W) = 1/200 = 0.005 and the probability of losing is P(L) = 1-P(W) = 1-0.005 = 0.995 where W and L represent winning and losing respectively.

The net value of winning is V(W) = 250 - 1 = 249 because the player wins $250 but they lose $1 (which is the cost of the ticket). The net value of losing is V(L) = -1, indicating the player has lost that $1 and hasn't gained any money at all.

To summarize so far:

P(W) = 0.005

P(L) = 0.995

V(W) = 249

V(L) = -1

Multiply the probability P values with the corresponding net values V, then add up the products to get the expected value:

E(X) = P(W)*V(W) + P(L)*V(L)

E(X) = 0.005*249 + 0.995*(-1)

E(X) = 0.25

The expected value is 0.25 dollars or 25 cents

This positive expected value means that the game is favored toward the player, because over the long run, the player gains an average of 25 cents each time they play. On the other side of the spectrum, the lottery company loses on average 25 cents each time. The nonzero expected value means that the game is not fair.

∠lno ≅ ∠lnm

∠oln ≅ ∠mln

step-by-step explanation:

given   that triangle lno is congruent to triangle lnm.

we have to fill up the blanks in the given question.

according to above order of congruency   kept in mind we can say that

∠lno ≅ ∠lnm

∠oln ≅ ∠mln

ln ≅ ln due to common in both.

hence, by sas congruency,

the side angle side rule   states that if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to another triangle, then these two triangles are congruent.

$4034.40

the perimeter of the field is the sum of the lengths of the four sides:

47 yd + 158 yd + 47 yd + 158 yd = 410 yd

the cost of 3 ft (1 yd) of fence is 3×$3.28 = $9.84.

so the cost of jake's wood perimeter fance is

(410 yd) × ($9.84 /yd) = $4034.40
