Answer:

The expected number of wins for the​ player is 2.31

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of face cards = 12

total cards = 52

Probability of getting face card = [tex]\frac{\text{No. of face cards}}{\text{Total No. of cards}}[/tex]

Probability of getting face card = [tex]\frac{12}{52}[/tex]

The player plays 10​ times

Formula : [tex]E=np[/tex]

n = no. of trials = 10

p = probability of success= [tex]\frac{12}{52}[/tex]

E=expected number of wins

[tex]E=10(\frac{12}{52})[/tex]

[tex]E=2.307[/tex]

So,  the expected number of wins for the​ player is 2.31
