So the roulette wheel would have a total of 38 numbers, which means 38 different possible cases. Since you are allowed to bet on 5 numbers, the chance to win this is 5 out of 38 and to lose this is 33 out of 38.

If you win, you get 1 + 6 = 7 dollar, and if you lose, you lose 1 dollar.

Therefore the expected amount out of this game is:

$E = 7\frac{5}{38} - 1\frac{33}{38} = \frac{35}{38} - \frac{33}{38} = \frac{2}{38} = \frac{1}{19} = \$0.0526$

or 5 cents

In Ms. Dole's class, students received grades of 87, 72, 99, 93, and 84 on yesterday's quiz. What was the mean of the quiz grade

Naddika [18.5K]

Hello!

The mean is the average of the numbers

To find the average you add them all up and divide the sum by the amount of numbers added

87 + 72 + 99 + 93 + 84 = 435

Divide the sum by the amount of numbers added

435 / 5 = 87

The answer is 87

Hope this helps!
