A question on a multiple choice test has 6 answers which just one is right and the other wrong.
If the amount of the correct answer is 10 points how many points should be substracted for a wrong answer so if nobody answers randomly choosing one of the 6 answers get, on average, 0 points?
I am trying to find the expected value like this : E(X)=10*P(X=10)+0*P(X=0) but the quiz doesn't take it correct where i am wrong?
