Ms. Rasu designed a game where you roll a regular die with faces showing numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. If you roll a number that is a multiple of 3 you receive points double the amount of your roll, but if you roll any other number, you lose points the value of the roll. This information is recorded in the attached image. a) Complete the last column of the table. b) Calculate the expected value, E(X). c) Is this game fair? Justify.

Suppose a weather report indicates that the probability of rain this week is 0.20. This week Next week According to the report, if it rains this week, then the probability of rain next Rain week is 0.33. If it does not rain this week, then the probability of rain next week is 0.17. The tree diagram models this weather report. 0.33 Rain 0.20 Determine the probability that it will not rain for the next two weeks. Express 0.67 No rain your answer as a decimal precise to two decimal places. Rain 0.17 probability = 0.80 No rain 0.83 No rain
