Monday's HW:
  • Monday's HW: Understanding Expected Value (Click Me!)
    • The key to this assignment is understanding how to calculate the probabilities for the table....
      • Remember, we are going to play some game twice and look at the sum of the scores for each game; in any individual game we can score 0, 1, or 2 points....
      • The table is giving us the sum of the points from two games; how could we earn a sum of 0? How many points would we need in the first game and then the second?
      • Or, to get a sum of 3, we could get a "___ and ___," or a "___ and ___." 
        • Use the probabilities shown in the graph and your "words and lines" to calculate the probability we get a sum of 0!
      • Be sure to check that your probabilities add up to 1!

Always check your answers! Here's a key:
Tomorrow it's on to more new stuff. See you there!
