We have the following given
p1 - probability for outcome 1
p2 - probability for outcome 2
p3 - probability for outcome 3
v1 - amount of money that you will win or lose for outcome 1
v2 - amount of money that you will win or lose for outcome 2
v3 - amount of money that you will win or lose for outcome 3

Therefore,
p1v1 + p2v2 + p3v3 is the average money you win or lose in playing the game.

A jar contains five red marbles and three green marbles. A marble is drawn at random and not
jenyasd209 [6]

The jar starts out with 8 marbles in it. Five of them are red.
If you don't peek, the probability of drawing a red marble is

                 5/8 .

If you have already drawn a red marble on the first try, then
at that point, the jar has only 7 marbles in it, and three of them
are green.  Now, for your second draw, if you don't peek, the
probability of drawing a green marble is

                  3/7 .

The probability of BOTH of those events being successful is

               (5/8) x (3/7) = 15/56  =  approx 26.79% .
