Suppose that you and a friend are playing cards and you decide to make a friendly wager. The bet is that you will draw two cards without replacement from a standard deck. If both cards are hearts, your friend will pay you $⁢16. Otherwise, you have to pay your friend $⁢3.

Step 2 of 2 :  

If this same bet is made 762 times, how much would you expect to win or lose? Round your answer to two decimal places. Losses must be expressed as negative values.

You draw cards from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. There are 12 “face cards” in the deck (J, Q, or K). Let X be the number of drawings (with replacement) it takes until you get your first face card. Let Y be the number of drawings (with replacement) it takes until you get your fifth face card. Let Z be the number of face cards removed if you draw 10 cards without replacement. (a) Calculate P(X = 5)....

2a) Suppose you are playing “Let’s Make a Deal”, the “prize” is worth $10,000, and a goat is worth nothing. Further suppose that the initial pick of a door is not part of the game (since it’s random anyway). You’ve always picked door A initially before the game has begun. The game starts as nature randomly determines where the prize is (1/3 chance for any of the three doors); then Monty Hall selects one of doors B or C that...
