    the correct question is

    In the game of roulette, a player can place a $5 bet on the number 34 and have a 1/38 probability of winning. if the metal ball lands on 34 , the player gets to keep the $5 paid to play the game and the player is awarded an additional $175. otherwise, the player is awarded nothing and the casino takes the player's $5. what is the expected value of the game to the player

    we know that

    P (winning) = 1/38

    P (losing) = 1-1/38 = 37/38

    Expected value = 175*1/38 - 5*37/38

    175/38 - 185/38 = - 10/38 = - $0.2632

    The player's expected value is - $0.2632 (is losing)
