Aprivate detective figures that he has a one in ten chance of recovering stolen property for his

C) The expected value is -$2000, so the detective should not take the job.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value is the sum of products of income and probability:

E = -10,000·1.00 + 80,000·0.10 = -10,000 +8,000 = -2,000

The detective can be expected to lose money on the job, so should not take it.

d

step-by-step explanation:

given

y + 3 = - 4(x - 2) ← distribute the parenthesis

y + 3 = - 4x + 8 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

y = - 4x + 5 → d

the slope of the line is 60

one point on the line is (40,10)

step-by-step explanation:

in the equation outside the parenthesis the equation always tells you the slope. in this case it is 60.

in the parenthesis is also says 40 which is x because it is near the x and 10 is y because it is near y.
