41

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 15 people gather for a hot dog eating contest. in the past, eight of these contestants have eaten 37 hot dog during the competition. three at 43, three ate 47 and one ate 49.

From the information given we prepare table as follows

No of hot dogs eaten  X      Frequency f       X*f

                37                                8                 296

                43                                3                 129

                47                                3                 141

                49                                1                  49    

Total                                            15                615

Expected value of X

= Mean value one person can take =

the expected number of hot dogs eaten by a randomly chosen contestant today is 41

rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

to find amount of money rick has after 10 years :

principal = $1000 , time = 10 years , rate = 4% annually

to find amount of money sally has after 10 years :

her friend gives to pay her $50 per year, therefore money she has after 10 years = 50 × 10 = $500

also, sally gets $1000 after 10 years,

therefore, total amount of money sally has after 10 years = 500 + 1000 = $1500

so, after 10 years : rick has $1400 and sally has $1500
