In a lottery, you pay $1 and pick a number from 000 to 999. If your number comes up, you win $350, which is a profit of $349. If you lose, you lose $1. Your probability of winning is 0.001. What is the expected value of your profit

The expected value of profit is -$0.65.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rules of the lottery are as follows:

The probability of winning is, P (W) = 0.001.

Then the probability of losing will be,

P (L) = 1 - P (W)

       = 1 - 0.001

       = 0.999

Let the random variable X represent the amount of profit.

The probability distribution table of the lottery result is as follows:

Result      X        P (X)

Win      +349     0.001

Lose         -1       0.999

The formula to compute the expected value of X is:

Compute the expected value of profit  as follows:

Thus, the expected value of profit is -$0.65.

domain is all the x values included in the

0 ≤ x ≤ 2

range is all the y values of the graph

-2 ≤ y ≤ 2

***keep in mind that there are different ways to show domain and range

hope this !
