Explanation Given: A fast food restaurant offers cash prizes in a contest to people who buy a large order of French fries’ worth $ 1.89 . The cash prizes with a probability of win are listed in table as shown: Prize Probability $ 100 , 000 1 8 , 504 , 860 $ 50 , 000 1 302 , 500 $ 10 , 000 1 282 , 735 $ 1000 1 153 , 560 $ 100 1 104 , 560 $ 25 1 9 , 540 Formula used: E ( x ) = ∑ x i p i Calculation: Probability to win each prize becomes 25 times. The probability to lose is: P = 1 − 25 × ∑ p = 0.99675 The probability distribution with net winnings as a random variable is shown in the table: Net winnings ( x ) Probability P ( x ) $ 99 , 952.75 25 8 , 504 , 860 $ 49 , 952.75 25 302 , 500 $ 9952
