Answer: [tex]=\frac{-1}{16}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
given data:
number to be chosen from = 1,2,3,4.
Solution:
ways the number can show
[tex]2*3*1=6[/tex] ways for your number to appear once.
[tex]1*1=1[/tex] ways for your number to appear twice.
[tex]3*3=9[/tex] ways for your number not to appear at all
[tex]= \frac{6(1) + 1(2) - 9(1)}{16}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{6+2-9}{16}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{-1}{16}[/tex]
expected return of the player is [tex]=\frac{-1}{16}[/tex]
