There is a game at the fair where you pay $10 to flip aCoin once-If the coin lands heads up, you lose.-If the coin lands tails up, you win $19

What is your net gain if you lose?
If you lose, the net gain = -10

What is your net gain if you win?
If you win, the net gain = 9

Anything deal with chance suchSuch as a casino or lottery….
What does a business have to do to In order to be successful?
![Page 13: At a particular carnival, there is a dice game that costs $5 to play. -If the die lands on an odd number, you lose. -If the die lands on a 2 or 4, you.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070307/551a1c7f55034654788b4723/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Therefore….
At the end of the day, the “business”Will have a positive net gain and the“players” will have an overall Negative net gain

Back to our dice example…..At a particular carnival, there is a dice game that costs$5 to play. -If the die lands on an odd number, you lose.-If the die lands on a 2 or 4, you win $8.-If the die lands on 6, you win $13.
Now we can create a probabilityDistribution with out possible
Outcomes and our net gains

What could be your possible “winnings”?
At a particular carnival, there is a dice game that costs$5 to play. -If the die lands on an odd number, you lose.-If the die lands on a 2 or 4, you win $8.-If the die lands on 6, you win $13.
Lose, win $8, win $13

“Winnings” Lose Win $8 Win $13
Net Gain -5 3 8
P(X) 3/6 2/6 1/6
Mean = -5 (3/6) + 3 (2/6) + 8 (1/6)
Now find the “mean” using net gain and P(X)
Mean = -2.5 + 1 + 1.33
Mean = -0.2
![Page 17: At a particular carnival, there is a dice game that costs $5 to play. -If the die lands on an odd number, you lose. -If the die lands on a 2 or 4, you.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070307/551a1c7f55034654788b4723/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
This “mean” we found using net gain and P(X)Is called:
Expected Value = E(X)
Therefore, each time I play the dice game I am Expected to lose $0.20 on average.
Does this seem correct that I expect to lose?
Yes, because that means the “business” is making $

Find the expected value from our coin exampleThere is a game at the fair where you pay $10 to flip aCoin once-If the coin lands heads up, you lose.-If the coin lands tails up, you win $19
“Winnings” Lose Win $8
Net Gain -10 9
P(X) 1/2 1/2
E(X) = -10 (1/2) + 9 (1/2)E(X) = -5 + 4.5 = -0.5

Example 1:Find the expected value if tickets are sold in a raffle at$2 each. The prize is a $1000 shopping spree at a localMall. Assume that one ticket is purchased.
“Winnings” Lose Win
Net Gain -2 998
P(X) 14991500
E(X) = -2(1499/1500)+ 998(1/1500)E(X) = -1.999 + 0.665 = -1.33

Example 2:Find the expected value for example #1 if two tickets
Are purchased
“Winnings” Lose Win
Net Gain -4 996
P(X) 14981500
E(X) = -4(1498/1500)+ 996(2/1500)E(X) = -3.995 + 1.328 = -2.67

Example 3:A lottery offers one $1000 prize, one $500 prize, andFive $100 prizes. One thousand tickets are sold at $3
each. Find the expected value of one ticket.
“Winnings” Lose Win $1000
Net Gain -3 997
P(X) 993_1000
E(X) = -3(993/1000)+ 997(1/1000) + 497(1/1000) + 97(5/1000)
E(X) = -2.979 + 0.997 + 0.497 + 0.485 = -1.00

Try some on your own:One thousand tickets were sold at $1 each for four
Prizes of $100, $50, $25, and $10. What is the Expected value if a person purchases two tickets?

Try some on your own:You pay $5 to draw a card from a standard deck of 52Cards. If you pick a red card, you win nothing. If you
Get a spade, you win $5. If you get a club, you win $10.If you get the ace of clubs, you win an additional $20.
Find the expected value of drawing one card.
