A fair six-sided die
is rolled in a game where you pay \(\dollar\)3 to play and receive a payout (in dollars) equal to 2 times the number shown on the die, as shown in this example:
\(\text{Payout: } 2 \times \textcolor{colordef}{2} = 4 \text{ dollars}, \text{ Net Gain: } 4 - 3 = 1\)
The random variable \(X\) represents the net gain from the game.
Choose the one correct answer:
\(X(\textcolor{colordef}{i}) = 2 \times \textcolor{colordef}{i} - 3\),
\(X(\textcolor{colordef}{i}) = 3-2 \times \textcolor{colordef}{i}\),
\(X(\textcolor{colordef}{i}) = 2 \times \textcolor{colordef}{i} \).
