Kyle has to make a decision about his health insurance. Under one plan, the monthly cost of insurance is $15, but if he visits a doctor, he has to pay $50 for an office visit.

Kyle estimates that he has a 0.05 probability of needing to visit a doctor in any given month.

    100 - 0.05 = 0.95

    Expected monthly cost =

    Monthly cost x 0.95 + office visit x 0.05

    15 x 0.95 + 50 x 0.05

    14.25 + 2.50 = $16.75
