3. Katy and Taylor are best friends. Taylor says to her friend that she has the ability to
continuous put three heads of coin tosses. So, katy decided to test with monetary bet.
The deal is: if Taylor win and showcase her ability, katy will pay 50 dollars to Taylor.
However, if Taylor loses, Taylor has to pay 20 dollars to Katy. You are watching this
and wondering if every now and then if they both play this game, how much Taylor is
expected to make in every bet. Similarly, how much katy is expected to make in every
bet?
