4-77.
Jinning is going to flip a coin. If the result is “heads,” he wins
What is his expected value per flip?
What is the probability of landing on "heads"?
How about the probability of landing on "tails"?Multiply each
outcome by its probability of occurring then find the sum. Lose
If he flips the coin
times, about how much should he expect to win (or lose)? If your answer for part (a) is the expected value for one flip, then what is the value for
of those flips combined?
