Suppose that you are offered the following "deal." You roll a six sided die. If you roll a 6, you win$13. If you roll a 4 or 5, you win $4. Otherwise, you pay $6.a.

Respuesta :

We have a six-sided die

possible outcome

[tex]1,\text{ 2,3,4,5,6}[/tex]

if you roll a 6 you get $13

if you roll a 4 or 5 you get $4

if otherwise, you get 1,2,3 you will them $6

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Probability of getting \$13=}\frac{1}{6} \\ \\ \text{Probability of getting \$4=}\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3} \\ \\ \text{Probability of paying them \$6=}\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2} \end{gathered}[/tex]

We are asked to complete the table from smallest to biggest

Part B

The expected profit.

[tex]\begin{gathered} -6(\frac{1}{2})+4(\frac{1}{3})+13(\frac{1}{6}) \\ \\ =-3+\frac{4}{3}+\frac{13}{6} \\ =\text{ \$0.50} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Part C

If you play many games you will likely win on average very close to $0.50 per game because the expected profit is $0.50

Part D

Yes, since the expected value is positive you will likely to come home with more money if you played more games
