You play a game with two six-sided dice. If you roll a sum of 3 or 8, you win ₱600. If you roll a sum of 10, you win ₱400. However, you lose ₱500 for anything else. If you continue to play the game, how much do you expect to win or lose in the game?

Here's the Solution to this Question

There are 6^2=36 pairs

1+2=2+1=3

2+6=3+5=4+4=5+3=6+2=8

4+6=5+5=6+4=10

E(X)=600(7/36)+400(3/36)-500(26/36)

=-7600/36\approx-211

I expect to lose ₱211 in the game.
