Calculate the expected value of a game in which a player tosses 2 distinguishable coins. The player wins $25 if two heads appear, wins $10 if1 head appears and loses $55 if two tails appear. a. Create a probability distribution for this game and then determine the expected value. b. What is t4e probability of playing the game once and losing $2.50?
