A game is played using one die. If the die is rolled and shows 1, the player wins $5. If the die shows any number other than 1, the player wins nothing. If there is a charge of $1 to play the game, what is the game's expected value?

--------------------

Let random variable "x" be a count of player gain.

X-values are: 4, -1

P(x=4) = 1/6; P(x= -1) = 5/6

---------------------------------

E(x) = (1/6)(4) + (5/6)(-1)

E(x) = [4-5]/6

E(x) = -1/6 = -17 cents

How did he get this 1/2i ? I dont remember studying this definition in calc 1 neither calc 2!
Hitman42 [59]
The i in the denominator is missing in the second expression. It should be

\sin at=\dfrac{e^{iat}-e^{-iat}}{2i}

This follows from

e^{iat}=\cos at+i\sin at
e^{-iat}=\cos at-i\sin at
\implies e^{iat}-e^{-iat}=2i\sin at
\implies \sin at=\dfrac{e^{iat}-e^{-iat}}{2i}
