D) 47,000

0.60 (<em>x</em>+38,000)= 51,000
(0.60<em>x</em>)+22,800= 51,000
51,000-22,800= 28,200
28,200÷0.60= 47,000
0.06 (47,000+38,000)= 51,000
28,200+22,800= 51,000

Miguel is playing a game in which a box contains four chips with numbers written on them. Two of the chips have the number 1, on
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3 /><h3>Step 1</h3>

Miguel wins $2 is if he pulls two chips with the number 1.  

<u>Probability of winning is: </u>

  • 2/4 * 1/3 = 1/6  as there are 4 chips in total

<u> Probability of loosing is:</u>

  • 1- 1/6 = 5/6
<h3 /><h3>Step 2</h3>

<u>Missing values we found in the step 1, can be populated in the table:</u>

  • Xi === 2 === -1
  • P(Xi) === 1/6 === 5/6

<u>Expected Value as per table data:</u>

  • 1/6*2 + 5/6*(-1) = -1/2

Expected value is $1/2 loss each time he plays

<h3 /><h3>Step 3</h3>

To make the game fair, the expected value should be zero.

<u>Then as per the calculation above, let's replace 2, with x, and find its value.</u>

  • 1/6x + 5/6*(-1) = 0      
  • 1/6x = 5/6                  
  • x= 5  

So the amount should be $5 to make the game fair.
