ping pong ball is drawn at random from an urn consisting of balls numbered 4 through 9. A player wins $1.5 if the number on the ball is odd and loses $1.5 if the number is even.

Let x be the amount of money a player will win/lose when playing this game, where x is negative when the player loses money.

(a) Construct the probability table for this game. Round your answers to two decimal places.

Outocme x Probability P(x)



(b) What is the expected value of player's winnings? Round to the nearest hundreth.



(c) Interpret the meaning of the expected value in the context of this problem.

Two balls are chosen randomly from an urn containing 5 black and 5 white balls. Suppose that we win $1 for each black ball selected and we lose $1 for each white ball selected. Denote our winnings by a random variable X. (a) (4 points) Provide the probability distribution of X. (b) (2 points) Using the result in (a), what is the probability that 0 ≤ X ≤ 2?

Three balls are randomly chosen from an urn containing 3 white, 4 red and 5 black balls. Suppose one will win $1 for each white ball selected, lose 1$ for each red ball selected and receive nothing for each black ball selected.

Two balls are chosen randomly from an urn containing 9 yellow, 5 blue, and 3 magenta balls. Suppose that we win $3 for each blue ball selected, we lose $2 for each yellow ball selected and we win $0 for each magenta ball selected. Let X denote our winnings. What are the possible values of X, what are the probabilities associated with each value (i.e., find the probability mass function of X), and what is the expectation value of X,E[X]?
