... 2. Imagine that you are the manager of a carnival. One of the game operators has designed a new game. In this game, players pick one card out of an ordinary deck of 52 playing cards. An ace wins $10, a face card (K, Q, or J) wins $1, and all other cards win nothing. Determine the cost to play this ...
