If seven fortune cookies contain "$1 off," two contain "$2 off," and one contains "$6 off," determine the expectation of a selection.

Respuesta :

Answer:

We can expect $1.7 off

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 10 fortune cookies out of which

$1 off  = 7 cookies

$2 off = 2 cookies

$6 off = 1 cookie

Probability

A = drawing $1 off cookies    P(A) = 7/10

B= drawing $2 off cookies    P(B)  = 2/10

C= drawing $6 off cookie      P(B)  = 1/10

Expectation = 1*7/10 + 2*2/10+ 6*1/10

                    = 7/10  +   4/10  + 6/10

                    =  17/10 = $1.7 off
