At a charity event, a player rolls a pair of dice. If the player rolls a pair (same number on each die), the player wins $10. If the two dice are exactly one number apart (like five and six), the player wins $6. If the player rolls one and six, they win $15. Otherwise, they lose. It costs $5 to play. Find the expected value. Write a complete sentence to explain what your answer means without using the words "expected value". Show all work for full credit, including the probability distribution.
