Assignment #19
 
Dear Students, 
 
For homework tonight, I'd like you to please do 2 things. 
 
#1:
Firstly, find the expected value of this very basic game of rolling a die (number cube).  The details are as follows:
 
You pay $1 to play. 
If you roll a 1 or 2, you lose. 
If you roll a 3, 4, or 5, you receive a $1 price in return.  
If you roll a 6, you receive a $2 price in return.  
 
Your challenge...part 1:  Find the expected value of this game
Your challenge...part 1:  Based on your calculation, how much would I expect to make from this game if 200 people at the carnival play my game?
 
#2
Begin thinking about your probability carnival game.  We will devote Thursday to designing and conceiving the game, and all next week building the game.  Remember that it must be fun and engaging, and playable by 5-14 year olds!
