Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming there is a punitive removal of one point for an incorrect response.
Five undiscernable choices: 20% chance of guessing correctly -- Expectation: 0.20*(1) + 0.80*(-1) = -0.60
Four undiscernable choices: 25% chance of guessing correctly -- Expectation: 0.25*(1) + 0.75*(-1) = -0.50
I'll use 0.33 as an approzimation for 1/3
Three undiscernable choices: 33% chance of guessing correctly -- Expectation: 0.33*(1) + 0.67*(-1) = -0.33 <== The approximation is a little ugly.
Two undiscernable choices: 50% chance of guessing correctly -- Expectation: 0.50*(1) + 0.50*(-1) = 0.00
And thus we see that only if you can remove three is guessing neutral. There is no time when guessing is advantageous.
One Correct Answer: 100% chance of guessing correctly -- Expectation: 1.00*(1) + 0.00*(-1) = 1.00

Answer:
616/2500
Step-by-step explanation: You first have to find the number of times a Blue marbles was chosen: 22
Then find the total number of marbles that were chosen. Make a fraction out of it: 22/50
You then see how many times tails was flipped: 28
Do the same thing again: 28/50
Then multiply the two fractions together:
22/50 * 28/50 = 616/2500
