Answer: The expected value of this game is 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Give that
If it's black, you lose a point. If it's red, you gain a point.
And then you can stop at any time. But you should never stop when you are losing because that can guarantee 0 by drawing all the cards.
Assuming you should stop after three cards when you are +2.
The only question is whether to draw if you are +1 on the first draw.
If you draw red first, You have 1/3 chance of drawing red again and this will give you +2 points
1/3 chance of drawing two blacks and earn zero point, chance of drawing black-red and earn +1. This gives +1, so it doesn't matter whether you draw or not.
From the beginning, If you draw red (probability 1/2 you end +1. If you draw black and then draw two reds (probability 1/6 you end +1) Otherwise you break even with probability 1/3. Overall, the value is 2/3
Answer:
A, B, D, G, and H should be correct
Step-by-step explanation:
I've done the same problem and those were the answers shown
(1/5) / 4.5 = 2 / m....1/5 mile to 4.5 minutes = 2 miles to m minutes
cross multiply
(1/5)(m) = (2)(4.5)
1/5m = 9
m = 9 * 5/1
m = 45 minutes <===
Answer:
1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
dice rolling=1/6
coin flipping=1/2
Hence probability=1/6×1/2
