2. Dr. Inks Weet, the head of the newly created Ministry of Silly Games, invents a new game called Canadian Roulette. The game works as follows: Four opaque bottles are obtained. One bottle is filled with water, and the other bottles all are filled with maple syrup. The bottles are put into a random order (the probability of any permutation is equal). Player A drinks the first bottle, Player B drinks the second bottle, Player A drinks the third bottle, and finally Player B drinks the fourth bottle. For each bottle of maple syrup a player drinks, that player collects a reward of 10 units of happiness. If a player drinks a bottle of water, that player collects a negative reward of -20 units of happiness. For example, a player that drinks a bottle of maple syrup and a bottle of water collects a total reward of 10- 20 = -10. (a) What is the expected reward for the second player? Explain your answer.
