I'm stuck on problem 3 and 4. Thank You.

Questions 1-5 refer to prospects X and Y below, as well as the following information X ($0,0.25; $50,0.50; $100,0.25) Y($20,0.25; $50,0.50$80,0.25) Mark has utility of wealth given by u(x) -x04 I. What is the expected value of prospect X (EVCax))? 2. What is the standard deviation of prospect X (SD(X))? (Round your answer to the nearest cent, and dont worry, Гії include a healthy margin of error so you wont get this wrong due to rounding) 3. What is the value of the expected utility of Y for Mark (EU(Y))? How much more is Mark willing to spend to acquire Y than to acquire X (so, what is the value of CE(Y)-CE(X))? (Hint, if u(x)04, then(x) x25) 4.
