A part of the question is missing and it says;

b) Calculate the variance of the amount you win.

A) Expected value of Pay out;

(E(Y)) = - 0.11

B) Variance of the amount won; Var(Y) = 0.9879

Step-by-step explanation:

A) From the question, we have;

X ∈ {0,1,2} and by the nature of the question, X has a hypergeometric distribution as;

P(X =i) = [(5,i) (5, 2 - i)] / (10,2)

Furthermore, when we consider the random variable Y that marks the amount of money that we win, we'll get a function of X as;

Y = 1X [x∈{0,2}] - [1X(x=1)]

If we now use the linearity of expectation, we'll get;

E(Y) = E [X(x∈{0,2}) ] - [E(X(x=1))]

= P(X = 0) + P(X = 2) - P(X = 1)

For 2 balls with probability of a win, P = (possible outcome) /(total outcome) =

{(2C1) (5C2)}/(10C2) = (2 x 10)/45 = 20/45

While, for probability of no win;

P = 1 - (20/25) = 25/25

So, E(Y) =20/45 - 25/45 = - 5/45 =

- 0.11

B) Now let's calculate for the variance;

Var(Y) = E(Y(^2)) - E(Y)^(2)

Now, from question a, using the equation of Y, we can say;

(Y)^(2) = (1^2)X [x∈{0,2}] - [(1^2)X(x=1)]

And so;

E(Y^(2)) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 1) = (1^2)(20/45) + (-1^2)(25/45) = 45/45 = 1

So, Var(Y) = 1 - (-0.11)^2 = 0.9879
