The expected value of the number of points for each turn is 0.25
<h3>What is expected value?</h3>
Expected value describes the long term average level of a random variable based on its probabilty distribution.
Now, Probability that 2 heads come up is
P(2 is H) = 1/4
Probability that 1 heads come up is
P(1 is H) = 2/4
⇒P(1 is H) = 1/2
Probability that no head will come up
P(no H's) = 1/4
Hence, the expected value for winning of 2points, 1point and lose of3 points is given as-
Expected value = 2 * P(2 is H) + 1 * P(1 is H) - 3 * P(no H's)
⇒Expected value = 2 * 1/4 + 1 * 1/2 - 3 * 1/4
= 0.5 + 0.5 - 0.75
⇒Expected value = 0.25

Answer:
(B) 0.0588
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability is calculated as a division between the number of possibilities that satisfy a condition and the number of total possibilities. Then, the probability that the first card is diamonds is:
Because the deck has 52 cards and 13 of them are diamonds.
Then, if the first card was diamonds, the probability that the second card is also diamond is:
Because now, we just have 51 cards and 12 of them are diamonds.
Therefore, the probability that both cards are diamonds is calculated as a multiplication between and . This is:
