Suppose new rules are set for the same game. Everyone pays $2 per roll. Two dic are rolled and the outcomes are summed. This time: • Player A wins $4 if the sum is 5 or less Player B wins $2 if the sum is 6, 7 or 8 • Player C wins $4 if the sum is 9 or more. (a) Find the expected value for each player and explain its meaning.
