- If a game gives payoffs of $10 and $100 with probabilities 0.9 and 0.1, respectively, then the expected value of this game is E=0.9+0.1= .arrow_forwardAssume that the probability that an airplane engine will fail during a torture test is 12and that the aircraft in question has 4 engines. Construct a sample space for the torture test. Use S for survive and F for fail.arrow_forwardThe conditional probability of E given that F occur is P(EF)= _____________. So in rolling a die the conditional probability of the event E. “getting a six,” given that the event F, “getting an even number.” has occurred is P(EF)= ____________.arrow_forward
