Please help! Correct answer only! In a raffle, one ticket out of 500 will win a $390 prize, three tickets will win a $230 prize, and sixteen tickets will win a $170 prize. The remaining tickets will win nothing. If you have a ticket, what is the expected payoff?

x = -3

y = -18

step-by-step explanation:

to solve by substitution, substitute one variable and solve for the other. then substitute again to find the remaining variable.

x-1/3(3x-9) = -3 since y=3x-9 substittute y.

x-1/3(3x-9)=-3

x + x +3 = -3

2x+3=-3

2x+3-3= -3-3

2x=-6

x=-3

substitute again into y=3x-9

y=3(-3)-9

y=-9-9

y=-18
