A game popular in Nevada gambling casinos is Keno, which is played as follows: Twenty numbers are selected at random by the casino from the set of numbers 1 through 80. A player can select from 1 to 15 numbers; a win occurs if some fraction of the player’s chosen subset matches any of the 20 numbers drawn by the house. The payoff is a function of the number of elements in the player’s selection and the number of matches. For instance, if the player selects only 1 number, then he or she wins if this number is among the set of 20, and the payoff is $2.20 won for every dollar bet. (As the player’s probability of winning in this case is , it is clear that the "fair" payoff should be $3 won for every $1 bet). When the player selects 2 numbers, a payoff (of odds) of $12 won for every $1 bet is made when both numbers are among the 20.A) What would be the fair payoff in this case? Let P, k denote the probability that exactly k of the n numbers chosen by the player are among the 20 selected by the house. B) Compute Pn, k. C) The most typical wager at Keno consists of selecting 10 numbers. For such a bet, the casino pays off as shown in the following table. Compute the expected payoff.

The missing part in the question;

and the payoff is $2.20 won for every dollar bet. (As the player’s probability of winning in this case is ........

Also:

For such a bet, the casino pays off as shown in the following table.

The table can be shown as:

Keno Payoffs in 10 Number bets

Number of matches        Dollars won for each $1 bet

0  -   4                                        -1

5                                                  1

6                                                  17

7                                                  179

8                                                 1299

9                                                 2599

10                                               24999

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Twenty numbers are selected at random by the casino from the set of numbers 1 through 80

A player can select from 1 to 15 numbers; a win occurs if some fraction of the player’s chosen subset matches any of the 20 numbers drawn by the house

Let assume X to represent the numbers of player chooses which are in the Casino-selected-set of 20.

Let assume the random variable X has a hypergeometric distribution with parameters  N= 80 and m =20.

Then, the probability mass function of a hypergeometric distribution can be defined as:

Now; the probability that i out of  n numbers chosen by the player among 20  can be expressed as:

Also; given that ; When the player selects 2 numbers, a payoff (of odds) of $12 won for every $1 bet is made when both numbers are among the 20

So; n= 2; k= 2

Then :

Probability P ( Both number in the set 20)  

Probability P ( Both number in the set 20)

Probability P ( Both number in the set 20)

Probability P ( Both number in the set 20)

Thus; the payoff odd for is 16.63:1 ,as such fair payoff in this case is $16.63

Again;

Let assume X to represent the numbers of player chooses which are in the Casino-selected-set of 20.

Let assume the random variable X has a hypergeometric distribution with parameters  N= 80 and m =20.

The probability mass function of the hypergeometric distribution can be defined as :

Now; the probability that i out of  n numbers chosen by the player among 20  can be expressed as:

From the table able ; the expected payoff can be computed as shown in the attached diagram below. Thanks.

answer: 590

step-by-step explanation:

the 1st digit is in the 100s n its 1

step-by-step explanation:

3,589÷18 = 199.389

so the first digit of the quotient is in the 100s n its 1
