According to the tables used by insurance companies, a 48-year old man has a 0.169% chance of passing away during the coming year. An insurance company charges $217 for a life insurance policy
that pays a $100,000 death benefit.
What is the expected value for the person buying the insurance?

The expected value for the person buying the insurance is of -$48.

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected value:

0.169% = 0.00169 probability of earning the death benefit of $100,000, subtracting 217, 100000 - 217 = $99,783.

100 - 0.169 = 99.831% = 0.99831 probability of losing $217.

What is the expected value for the person buying the insurance?

The expected value for the person buying the insurance is of -$48.

step-by-step explanation:

given that there are two triangles j'k'l' and jkl>

the former is got by dilating the second one.

when drawn on a grid, (graph paper) coordinates of vertices of first triangle is

(6,12)j, (9,6)k and (12,9)l

side jk has length = distance between j and k

=

side j'k'=distance between j' and k'

=

ie j'k'l' has sides 1/3 of that of corresponding sides of jkl.

hence scale factor of 1/3 is used to get j'k'l'from jkl

answer: first option i.e. 'a' is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

number of minutes to wrap a small gift box = 4 minutes

we need to find the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes

since there is a direct variation, as the number of minutes will increase with   number of gifts to be wrapped.

so, let the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes be x.

so, it becomes,

hence, first option 'a'   is correct.
