Answer:

A. 0.75

B. Elsa can expect to gain 0.75 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

We have six outcomes

Using the table in the attachment, the expected value was calculated.

Expected value = 0.166667+0.3333+0.5-0.083333-0.083333-0.083333

= 0.75

B. From the answer in part A , we can conclude that Elsa can expect to gain money. She can expect to win 0.75 dollars per roll.
