Find the expected value of the random variable. Round to the nearest cent unless stated otherwise. Suppose you buy 1 ticket for $1 out of a lottery of 1,000 tickets where the prize for the one winning ticket is to be $500. What is your expected value
1 answer:
Answer:
Expected Value = - 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Expected Value [ E(X) ] = Σ {X. Probability (X)} = Σ [ (X).P(X) ]
Probability = 1 / 1000
X Value = 500 - 1 = 499
Probability = 1 - Probability Winning = 999 / 1000
X Value = -1
(1 / 1000) (499) + (999 / 1000) (-1)
0.499 - 0.999
= - 0.5

1 + {[(1 * 0.5) x 12] x 3}
1 + {[0.5 x 12] x 3}
1 + {6 x 3}
1 + 18
19
I'm not sure if that's a 1.000 or 1,000 so:
1,000 + {[(1,000 * .5) x 12] x 3}
1,000 + {[500 x 12] x 3}
1,000 + {6,000 x 3}
1,000 + 18,000
19,000
