An um contains 1 red marble, 7 white marbles and 2 blue marbles. A player randomly
selects one marble from the urn and wins $5 if the marble is red, loses $3 if the marble
is white and loses $1 if the marble is blue. Find the expected winnings.

A loss of 1.8$

Step-by-step explanation:

In the bag in this problem, we have:

r = 1 (number of red marbles)

w = 7 (number of white marbles)

b = 2 (number of blue marbles)

n = r + w + b = 1 + 7 + 2 = 10 (number of total marbles)

So, the probabilities of choosing a red, a white or a blue marble are:

(probability of choosing a red marble)

(probability of choosing a white marble)

(probability of choosing a blue marble)

The winning associated to each probability are:

+$5 if the marble is red

-$3 if the marble  is white

-$1 if the marble is blue

So the expected winning can be calculated as follows:

So, he can expect a loss of 1.8$.
