Mathematical Expectation It is the expected monetary value of an event. It is the expected monetary value of an event. ME = $ ∙ p($)

1) Mulvihill is bidding on a landscaping job so he can make some money for senior week. The profit for the Alapocas job should be about $3200 for the year with a probability of The profit of the Hockessin job will be $3000 with a probability of The profit for the Alapocas job should be about $3200 for the year with a probability of The profit of the Hockessin job will be $3000 with a probability of However, with the costs of running the landscaping he will lose $700 on equipment repairs with a probability of However, with the costs of running the landscaping he will lose $700 on equipment repairs with a probability of What is his expected return for each job? What is his expected return for each job?

2) J anavel made up a new game using one die. If someone rolls an even number, they win $2. If they roll a one, they win $5. If they roll a 3 or a 5, they pay $4. It costs $2 to play. What is the mathematical expectation?
