- Andy and Marjorie are playing tennis. The points system is as follows: there are two conditions for a player to win a game: 1) A player must reach four points in that game before their opponent. So for example, if Andy wins four out of the first five points, then he wins 4-1. 2) A player must have at least two more points in that game than their opponent. So for example, if the score is 3-3 and then Andy wins a point, then the score is 4-3 to Andy but the game isn't over. If Andy wins the next point, then he wins the game 5-3; otherwise, the score is 4-4, and again a player must win two points in a row to win the game. When the score in a game is tied at 3-3 (or 4-4, or 5-5, and so on), it is called 'deuce'. To win a set, a player must win six games before their opponent and as with games, this must be by a difference of two. So for example if Marjorie wins 6 out of the first 8 games, she wins the set 6-2. Unlike games, however, sets do not go on indefinitely.

(There are 18 red compartments, 18 black compartments, and two compartments that are neither red nor black.) If the ball lands on red, you get to keep the $7 you paid to play the game and you are awarded $7. If the ball lands elsewhere, you are awarded nothing and the $7 that you bet is collected. Complete parts (a) through (b) below. III a. What is the expected value for playing roulette if you bet $7 on red? $ (Round to the nearest cent.) b. What does this expected value mean?

Along the coast there are 3 lighthouses, whose lights can be seen blinking at night by sailors near the shore. The first light shines for 3 seconds then is off for 3 seconds and repeats. The second light shines for 4 seconds then is off for 4 seconds and repeats. The third light shines for 5 seconds then is off for 5 seconds and repeats. All three lights have just come on together.
