Suppose you decided to play a gambling game. In order to play the game there is a $1.50 dollar fee to play. If you roll a 1, 2, or 3 you win nothing (i.e., your net profit is $-1.5 dollars). If you roll a 4 or 5, you win $2.50 (i.e., your net profit is $1). If you roll a 6 you win $5.75 (i.e., your net profit is $4.25).a) Use the information described above to constuct a probability distribution table for the random variable xx which represents the net profit of your winnings. Note: Be sure to enter your probabilities as reduced fractions.

- Answer the following questions. 3. When given two separate events, how do we know whether to apply the Addition Principle or the Multiplication Principle when calculating possible outcomes? What conjunctions may help to determine which operations to use?arrow_forwardYou are going to play the 7-11 game, which has the following rules: You roll two dice. If the total value of the two dice is 7 or 11, you immediately win the game. If the total value is 2, 3, or 12, you immediately lose. If the total value is 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10, you keep this value as a referenced point. Then, you continue rolling the dice until you obtain the same value as the referenced point then you win the game. However, if you obtain the value of 7 before the referenced point, then you lose. For example, you obtain 4 in the first time of rolling, you keep rolling the dice until you get 4 (before 7) then you win. Similarly, you obtain 4 in the first time of rolling, you keep rolling the dice but you get 7 (before 4) then you lose. What is the probability to win this game? You can solve this question either by - a simulation - in this case you have to answer one more question, i.e., on average how many times do you roll the dice for each game? (for a submission, you will need to…arrow_forwardAn urn contains 25 balls, 40% of which aregreen.

Justifyyour response.arrow_forward
- A friend proposes a gamble to you. You roll 2 fair, six-sided dice, and add up the results of each die to find your total number. If your roll totals a 6 or 8, your friend pays you $30. If you roll any other total, you pay your friend $10. What is your expected payoff from playing this game 100 times?.arrow_forwardYour friend proposes a game: You flip a coin. If it’s heads, you win $1. If it’s tails, youlose $1. However, you are worried the coin might not be fair coin. How could youchange the game to make the game fair, without replacing the coin?arrow_forwardThe game "craps" is played as follows: A player rolls two fair six-sided dice. If their sum is 7 or 11 the player wins right away. If their sum is 2,3, or 12, the player loses right away. If their sum is any other number, this number becomes the "point". The player then repeatedly rolls two dice until their sum equals the point, in which case the player wins, or equals 7, in which case the player loses. What is the probability of the player winning?arrow_forward
- At a back-to-school party, one of your friends lets you play a two-stage game where you pay $3 to play. The game works as follows: flip a fair coin, noting the side showing, and roll a fair standard 4-sided die (numbered 1–4), noting the number showing. If the die shows a 3 and the coin shows tails, then you win $22. If the coin shows heads and the die shows an even number, then you win $9. Otherwise, you do not win anything. Let X be your net winnings. (a) Create a probability distribution for X. Enter the possible values of X in ascending order from left to right. All probabilities should be exact. X P(X) (b) Compute your expected net winnings for the game. Round your answer to the nearest cent.arrow_forwardA certain game involves tossing 3 fair coins, and it pays 18¢ for 3 heads, 9¢ for 2 heads, and 3¢ for 1 head. Is 9¢ a fair price to pay to play this game? That is, does the 9¢ cost to play make the game fair?arrow_forwardWhat’s the correct option?arrow_forward
- The most popular game at the Whoville Resort and Casino (WRC) is "Pick Green", which is played with the WRC's Great Urn of Joy. This urn contains thousands of marbles: 85% red and 15% green. The game costs $1 to play and the rules simple: After paying $1, the player repeatedly draws one marble at random, with replacement from the Great Urn of Joy, until they draw a red marble. The player then receives a payoff based on the number of green marbles that they drew, according to the following table: #green marbles 0 1 2 3 4 or more payoff SO $1 $5 $100 $1000 While it is true that Whos don't earn extra cash for drawing more than 4 green marbles, they do get a certificate listing their total, and these certificates are a source of great pride in Whoville. What is the probability that a player receives (exactly) $5 in this game? What is the probability that a player receives at least $1 in this game? Consider the WRC's point of view: their profit-per-game is $1 - payoff. What is the expected…arrow_forwardWhich game would you play? Why? Performing simple calculations (described in Chapter 5) will help....Game 1: Toss a fair coin once. If it comes up Heads, you win $100. If it comes up tails, you lose nothing--zero dollars.Game 2: Toss a fair coin a hundred times. For each Heads that comes up, you win $1 and for tails you lose nothing.arrow_forwardThe 3-card Thriller game costs $3 to play and involves a 3-card deck where: • one card has red on both sides• one card has black on both sides• one card has red on one side and black on the other side. Once you pay, the host running the game draws a single card at random from the 3-card deck and shows you the colour of one of it’s sides. If you can correctly guess the colour of the other side of this card (the side you can’t see) you win $7. If you guess incorrectly you get nothing (i.e. $0, and a deep feeling of shame...). Prove that the expected value of this game is greatest when you always guess the same colour. Include a full mathematical expla- nation of all probabilities and include any references or sources.arrow_forward
