Miguel is playing a game in which a box contains four chips with numbers written on them. Two of the chips have the number 1, one chip has the number 3, and the other chip has the number 5. Miguel must choose two chips, and if both chips have the same number, he wins $2. If the two chips he chooses have different numbers, he loses $1 (–$1). Let X = the amount of money Miguel will receive or owe. Fill out the missing values in the table. (Hint: The total possible outcomes are six because there are four chips and you are choosing two of them.) Xi 2 –1 P(xi) What is Miguel’s expected value from playing the game? Based on the expected value in the previous step, how much money should Miguel expect to win or lose each time he plays? What value should be assigned to choosing two chips with the number 1 to make the game fair? Explain your answer using a complete sentence and/or an equation. A game at the…
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.

Ashleigh and Pavak play a game that begins with a pile of 100 toothpicks. They alternate turns with Ashleigh going first. On each player’s turn, they must remove 1, 3, or 4 toothpicks from the pile. The player who removes the last toothpick wins the game. Determine, with proof, which player has a winning strategy.
Your friend comes to you offering to play a game. In this game, you would pay to enter and then they would toss a fair coin up to 4 times. The game continues as long as a Head is tossed, but it ends early if ever a Tail is tossed. Your friend offers to pay you 2n dollars, where n is the number of heads tossed in a row before the game ends. The payouts of the game are as follows: If the first toss is a tail then the game ends early, and with n=0 so you are paid 1 dollar. If the first toss is Head and the second toss is Tail the game ends early, and with n=1 you get paid 2 dollars. If the first two tosses are Head and the third toss is Tail, the game ends early, and with n=2 you get paid 4 dollars. If the first three tosses are Head and the fourth is Tail then the maximum number of tosses has been reached, so you end the game with n=3 and get paid 8 dollars. If all four tosses are Heads then the maximum number of tosses has been reached, so you end the game with n=4 and get paid 16…
Zara and Sue play the following game. Each of them roll a fair six-sided die once. If Sue’s number is greater than or equal to Zara’s number, she wins the game. But if Sue rolled a number smaller than Zara’s number, then Zara rolls the die again. If Zara’s second roll gives a number that is less than or equal to Sue’s number, the game ends with a draw. If Zara’s second roll gives a number larger than Sue’s number, Zara wins the game. Find the probability that Zara wins the game and the probability that Sue wins the game. Note: Sue only rolls a die once. The second roll, if the game goes up to that point, is made only by Zara.

Suppose that you have 5 green cards and 5 yellow cards. The cards are well shuffled. You randomly draw two cards without replacement. G1 = the first card drawn is greenG2 = the second card drawn is green a. P(G1 and G2) = b. P(At least 1 green) = c. P(G2|G1) =
In a TV show, there are three boxes. Red, Green, and Yellow. One of the boxes has a frog in it and the other 2 is empty. You are trying to avoid to open the box with the frog. Assume that you randomly selected a box, let’s say Green. The game host opens one of the unselected box, say Red, and showed there was no frog in it. The host knows which one includes the frog. Now the host proposes you the option of either staying at the box that you have chosen or change it to the remaining box, (Yellow in this case). What is the probability of finding the frog if you change your selection and if you don't change? Compare the results and make the decision about switching your initial selection.
A carnival game has 160 rubber ducks floating in a pool. The person playing the game takes out one duck and looks at it. If there's a red mark on the bottom of the duck, the person wins a small prize. If there's a blue mark on the bottom of the duck, the person wins a large prize. Many ducks do not have a mark. After 50 people have played the game, only 3 of them have won a small prize, and none of them have won a large prize. Estimate the number of the 160 ducks that you think have red marks on the bottom. Then estimate the number of ducks you think have blue marks. Explain your reasoning.
