Answer:

a. \frac{1}{36} chance you win.

b. The expected value of the game is -$2.08.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

You roll 2 die and if you toss 2 sixes

For each roll, 6 possible values, 1 of which is 6. So the probability of rolling two sixes is:

p = (\frac{1}{6})^2 = \frac{1}{36}

a. What is the chance you win?

\frac{1}{36} chance you win.

b. What is the expected value of the game?

1/36 probability of winning 100.

35/36 probability of losing 5. So

E = \frac{1}{36}*100 - \frac{35}{36}*5 = \frac{100 - 175}{36} = -\frac{75}{36} = -2.08

The expected value of the game is -$2.08.
