Five thousand tickets are sold at​ $1 each for a charity raffle. Tickets are to be drawn at random and monetary prizes awarded a
babunello [11817]

Response:

the expected value of this raffle if you purchase 1 ticket = -0.65

Breakdown of the calculation:

Details:

5,000 tickets are sold at​ $1 each for a charitable raffle

Winners will be chosen at random with cash prizes as follows: 1 prize of ​$500​, 3 prizes of ​$300​, 5 prizes of ​$50​, and 20 prizes of​ $5.

Therefore, the value and its respective probability can be calculated as follows:

Value                              Probability

$500 - $1 = $499              1/5000

$300 - $1 = $299              3/5000

$50 - $1 = $49                    5/5000

$5 - $1 = $4                     20/5000

-$1                           1 - 29/5000 = 4971/5000

The expected value of the raffle when buying 1 ticket is computed as follows:

E(x) = \sum x * P(x)

E(x) = (499 * \dfrac{1}{5000} + 299 *\dfrac{3}{5000} + 49 *\dfrac{5}{5000} + 4 * \dfrac{20}{5000} + (-1 * \dfrac{4971}{5000} ))

E(x) = (0.0998 + 0.1794+0.049 + 0.016 + (-0.9942 ))

E(x) = (0.3442 -0.9942 )

\mathbf{E(x) = -0.65}

So, the expected value of this raffle when one ticket is purchased = -0.65
