A spinner consists of an arrow that rotates about the centre of a circle so that one of three
numbers is randomly selected (see diagram below). There is also a box containing three
numbered cards as shown below. S is the sum of two numbers – one selected randomly with
the spinner and the other from randomly selecting one of the cards from the box.

(a) Write down the four different possible values of S. [2]

(b) Find the probability of each value of S. [5]

119
(c) Show that the expected value of S is . [2]

(d) Anna plays a game where she wins $15 if S is an even number and loses $10 if
S is an odd number. Sophie plays the game 12 times. Find the amount of money
she expects to have at the end of the 12 games. [6]

(e) Anna now plays a different game where she wins $14 if S is an even number. She
loses x dollars if S is an odd number. Find the value of x so that the game is fair. [5]
