Avg difficulty 2.5

Suppose you play a game with a spinner. You play each game by spinning the spinner once. P(red) = $\frac{2}{5}$ , P(blue) = $\frac{2}{5}$ , and P(green) = $\frac{1}{5}$ . If you land on red, you pay $10. If you land on blue, you don't pay or win anything. If you land on green, you win $10. Complete the following expected value table.

	x	P(x)
