Suppose someone gives you 15 to 4 odds that you can't roll 2 even numbers with the roll of 2 fair dice. This means you win $15 i

f you succeed and you lose $4 if you fail. What is the expected value of this game to you? What can you expect if you play 200 times?

You can expect to make more money. There are 3 possibilities for this answer this question which gives each one 33.33% chance. Only one of these possibilities will leave you with money.

I hope that this helps

Answer:

Expected Value: $0.75    

Expected win after 200 plays: $150

Step-by-step explanation:

Succeed: roll two even values

Possibilities to succeed:

2, 2

2, 4

2, 6

4, 2

4, 4

4, 6

6, 2

6, 4

6, 6

They make 9 possible ways. There are 36 possible outcomes after rolling 2 dice . Therefore:

Probability of winning = 9/36 = 0.25

Probability of losing = 1 - 0.25 = 0.75

The expected value is computed as follows:

probability of winning * the value you get when you win + probability of losing* value you get when you lose

Expected Value = 0.25 * $15 + 0.75*(-$4) = $0.75    

Notice that the $4 is negative because it is a loss .

If you play 200 times your expected win is:  200* $0.75 = $ 150

Suppose we have 3 cards identical in form except that both sides of the first card are colored red, both sides of the second car
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

probability that the other side is colored black if the upper side of the chosen card is colored red = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all;

Let B1 be the event that the card with two red sides is selected

Let B2 be the event that the

card with two black sides is selected

Let B3 be the event that the card with one red side and one black side is

selected

Let A be the event that the upper side of the selected card (when put down on the ground)

is red.

Now, from the question;

P(B3) = ⅓

P(A|B3) = ½

P(B1) = ⅓

P(A|B1) = 1

P(B2) = ⅓

P(A|B2)) = 0

(P(B3) = ⅓

P(A|B3) = ½

Now, we want to find the probability that the other side is colored black if the upper side of the chosen card is colored red. This probability is; P(B3|A). Thus, from the Bayes’ formula, it follows that;

P(B3|A) = [P(B3)•P(A|B3)]/[(P(B1)•P(A|B1)) + (P(B2)•P(A|B2)) + (P(B3)•P(A|B3))]

Thus;

P(B3|A) = [⅓×½]/[(⅓×1) + (⅓•0) + (⅓×½)]

P(B3|A) = (1/6)/(⅓ + 0 + 1/6)

P(B3|A) = (1/6)/(1/2)

P(B3|A) = 1/3
