1. Consider a bet with 2.1.1 odds. This means that if you wager $1, you get back $2.10 if you win and $0 if you lose. Assume you start with $1 and place a single $1 bet. Let the RV X denote the change in your final wealth, i.e., P(X € (-1,1.1}) = 1. (a) (2 points) If the probability of winning is 45%, find your expected change in wealth E(X). (b) (2 points) If the probability of winning is...

You enjoy going to the horse-racing track on Sunday and have been doing so for the past 10 years. You've gotten to know some of the other regulars there. One Sunday you are complaining to a friend there that you'd like to place a bet on a specific horse to win, but the track is offering such low odds. Your friend laughs at your choice and offers to take a $100 bet himself and give you much better odds. You...

Suppose someone gives you 9 to 2 odds that you cannot roll two even numbers with the roll of two fair dice. This means you win $9 if you succeed and you lose $2 if you fail. What is the expected value of this game to you? Should you expect to win or lose the expected value in the first game? What can you expect if you play 100 times? Explain. What is the expected value of this game to...

Question 6 Write the correct values in the boxes. For this question, working is not required and will not be marked. Two of many kinds of bets you can make on a horse race are Win' and 'Place'. In each of these you nominate a horse, say 'Neddy', pay some money (your 'stake) and maybe get some money back (your 'payout'). The payout, if paid, is stakexodds, where 'odds is a number greater than 1 specified by the betting agency....

Two-Up (10 points) Two-up is an old gambling game using two coins. Before the coins are tossed, the player would guess whether the toss would result in two heads (obverse), two tails (reverse) or one head and one tail (ewan). The "spinner" would spin (or toss) the two coins and the player would see if they won their bet. Write an application for the game Two-up with the...
