In the game of roulette, a player can place a $10 bet on the number 7 and have a 1/38 probability of winning. If the metal ball lands on 7, the player gets to keep the $10 paid to play the game and the player is awarded an additional $350. Otherwise, the player is awarded nothing and the casino takes the player's $10. Find the expected value E(x) to the player for one play of the game.

The expected value is $ (Round to the nearest cent as needed.)
